History & Origin
Thomasene is a feminine form of Thomas, a name carried through Greek from the Aramaic 'te'oma,' 'twin,' and long linked to the apostle Thomas. The -ene ending places it among the graceful feminine elaborations popular in the early twentieth century.
It was never common, given to only about fifteen girls a year at its peak around 1942. A woman named Thomasene then would be of a grandparent's generation today, and the name has all but vanished behind the tidier Thomasina.
