Tony 
Greek, Latin, "Short for Anthony"
Perhaps the most iconic Tony of all time is Tony Manero, strutting down the streets of Brooklyn to a disco sound track in Saturday Night Fever. Other handsome Italian-American Tonys include crooner Tony Bennett and TV star Tony Danza, though the name fits just as easily on a crisply accented Brit, such as former Prime Minister Tony Blair.

Variations
Tono, Tonyo, Tonis Tonnie, Tonny, Tonik, Toney, Tonio, Toie, Tonee
Tony is a nickname of Washington, Gaston, Remington, Afton, Anthony, Antoine, Ashton, and Anton.
