Why?

Tom, because that's the one I'm used to seeing. Thom looks weird to me.

Also, Thom makes me want to produce the "th" sound... =/

[allisondawn.livejournal.com]

Thom, because it's not spelled Tomas.

Tom. Because it's TOM, not TH-om.

I've only known one Thom, and he was kind of a jerk (but you liked him anyway). I prefer Tom anyway, but knowing that guy makes me like it even more.

Thom.

Because I know a guy named Thom and think he's awesome, lol

I prefer Tom. I comprehend the reasoning behind Thom. I dislike both, though.

Thom. I think that the spelling is more "british" for whatever reason.

I prefer Tom, but Thom's not bad. Thom Yorke!

Tom, because "Thom" seems rather snobbish.

Tom! Thom makes me want to pronounce it with a lisp Thhhhom.

Thom kind of makes more sense, but I much prefer Tom. No real reason why, it just looks more pleasing to the eye.

This. I always want to say "Th-om". Plus all my friends/family go by Tom so I'm used to seeing it.

Tom. Thom looks off.
