At first I thought it sounds interesting, like a combination of Tom and Dominic,
but then I saw your phonetic spelling of it and realised it would sound like "Tom- ick!" like ew, too much teasing potential.

With that said.. what if I go with "Tom-eck" as the way to pronounce it. I agree about the Tom and Dominic combination, thats what I like about it.

Whatever pronunciation you say, kids are still going to pick up on the "ick" factor because that's how it's spelled and phonetically pronounced.

offhand, it kind of sounds like "stomach."
What nationality is it?

I should have probably stuck with "Tom-ick". I just looked it up and apparently its the Czechoslovskian form of Thomas.

I was going to say, it resembled "Tomek," which is the Polish version...
However, in Polish, Tomek is a nickname; the full name is Tomas. Is Tomik also a nn?

I'm really not sure but I'd use it as a full name.
