Back in the olden days/orginally: Tomaz. Or was it TTHHHH-oh-mass?

There's a bunch of ways, if you count all the different accents (Spanish, Russian etc) compared to other names. TOE-MAS ("MAS" pronounced as in the Spanish word for "more") is fairly common.

For the most part, this is correct, but I used to work for a guy who pronounced it THOM-iss...and he wasn't TOM, but THOM...:roll:

Where in the UK do they pronounce it "Tome-as"?

I was born in the UK and currently live in London and have never heard anyone pronounce Thomas as "Tome-as".


It's Thom-ass

Tow-mass 😕 where in UK did you hear that?

Tom-ah-ss

I would say 'ass', but I know you guys pronounce it a little different 😉
