  “Proper” names is a dated way of thinking.
  

Answer 3

It sounds childish and it’s boring . Almost as boring as Michael. Too dang common

Answer 4

Tommy is one ‘nick name’ that is also pretty common as a full name, ranking at #729 in 2018 in the United States. I personally think it should be fine, but if it gives you reservations Tommy could always be used as a nickname for Tom or even Thompson instead.

Sounds like a mobster.

People are going to shorten it to Tom. If you don't like Tom, don't pick Tommy.

It's good name

Answer 10

So name him Thomas, but call him Tommy. No one takes a person with a legal nickname seriously, and I'm SURE you want him to be successful as an adult.
