Japanese origin
“A Japanese masculine name combining 'tsuto' (help/assist) with 'mu' (a traditional masculine ending), creating a meaning around support and strength. This mid-20th century Japanese name carries straightforward masculine virtue—dependability and service. It has the solid, approachable character of classic postwar Japanese naming.”
