Meaning & Origin
Thomas (prophet whose story is told in the Book of Daniel)
Tomasz is a boy's baby name of Hebrew origin, the Polish form of Thomas, from the Aramaic Toma meaning 'twin.' The Apostle Thomas in the New Testament — 'Doubting Thomas' — was ultimately transformed by his encounter with the risen Christ into a figure of profound faith.
Tomasz carries the full weight of Polish Catholic tradition — one of Poland's most common names through history, carried by scholars, saints, and ordinary people with equal dignity.
