希腊形式的亚拉姆语名称תָֹּּמָא（Ta'oma'），意思是“孪生”。在新约中，这是使徒的名字。当他听到耶稣从死里复活时，他起初怀疑这个故事，直到耶稣出现在他面前，他自己检查了他的伤口。根据传统，他在印度殉道。由于他的知名度，这个名字在基督教世界被广泛使用。在英国，这个名字是由诺曼人引入的，由于12世纪坎特伯雷大主教兼殉道者圣托马斯·贝克特而变得非常流行。从13世纪到19世纪，它一直是最常见的五个男孩英文名字之一，至今仍广受欢迎。13世纪意大利哲学家和神学家托马斯·阿奎那（Thomas Aquinas）是另一位著名的圣徒，他被认为是教会的医生。其他著名的承载者包括哲学家托马斯·霍布斯（1588-1679）、美国总统托马斯·杰斐逊（1743-1826）、小说家托马斯·哈代（1840-1928）和发明家托马斯·爱迪生（1847-1931）。
