Tomiya is Japanese in Origin.

Tomiya is a Japanese given name, typically feminine, whose meaning depends on the kanji chosen. The tomi sound may be written with 富 “wealth, abundance,” or formed as compounds like 登美 (“rising beauty”) or 斗美 (“dipper/measure + beauty”); the ya is commonly 矢 “arrow,” 也/哉 used phonetically, or 弥 “ever more.” Attested spellings include 富也, 富弥, 登美哉, and 斗美矢, producing readings that evoke prosperity, beauty, steadiness, or swift aim.

Though uncommon as a given name, Tomiya is familiar in Japan as a surname and a place name (e.g., Tomiya City in Miyagi Prefecture). It appears intermittently in 20th- and 21st‑century records, often chosen for auspicious overtones. Variants and related forms include Tomi (short form), Tomiko, Tomie, and Miya; outside Japan it is sometimes respelled Tomia. The name’s overall sense clusters around prosperity, beauty, and forward movement.
