The surname meaning for "Tobin" is also wrong, it comes from a Norman surname "de Saint Aubyn", which I guess the native Irish had a hard time pronouncing. The website suggested it came from "son of Tobias" (which I guess might have happened at some point, but is not the usually given history of the name). Interesting that the three surnames with incorrect histories highlighted in the comments (so far) are all of Irish origin. Maybe the site is particularly poor with Irish surname origins?
