I'd like to elaborate upon my earlier statement. Tom is Tom, and that's all there is to it. Tom is Tom is Tom. TOM IS TOM IS TOM IS TOM. Don't try to figure out what sort of special relationship he has to the rest of Middle-earth, or even to Arda. You won't be able to, there isn't one. Tom is sort of an inside joke for Tolkien's family. Tom is his daughter's doll.
