ATTENTION: An Animal Crossing Wiki from Miraheze will be at a new website at animalcrossing.indyamos.com. This will be an enhanced version of this wiki. Please view Special:Diff/57616 for more information.
Timmy and Tommy are the nephews of Tom Nook. They are two identical twins (even though Timmy was born a few minutes later) and they dress differently depending on what level of the shop they are.
They are two small raccoons (tanuki in Japan) with the same appearance as their uncle, only in a younger version, smaller in height and cuter.
In Animal Crossing: New Horizons, Timmy and Tommy operate the Nook Inc. development venture along with Tom Nook, and they guide the player through picking their initial appearance, name, and island layout. Prior to the construction of Nook's Cranny, Timmy sells and buys items in the Resident Services tent while Tommy wanders the island carrying a Nook Inc. handheld pennant during the day and offers advice to the player when spoken to.
The day after the player pays off their first home loan, Timmy tells them about his plan to build a store, and he gives them a list of materials to bring him. Once the store is built, Timmy and Tommy start working there.
Prior to its removal in version Template:NHVer, when the player scans Timmy or Tommy's amiibo and tries to invite them, they will say:
Hello, this is Timmy. Ooooh, Player! How can I help you? What? I should go camping?! Well, I appreciate you wanting me to take a break, but I'm just too busy to go. Thank you for suggesting it, though. Hope to see you in the shop soon!
Tommy here! Oh, hi, Player! How can I help? Ohhhh, a visit to the campsite would be so much fun! But I'm super busy, so I don't think I can go... Thanks for the idea, though! I really do appreciate it!
Little Timmy may look like a cute little raccoon, but behind those big, innocent eyes is the brain of a savvy businessman. When Tom Nook retires, his family business will be in good paws, that's for sure.
This little Nookling will be happy to help you at Nookington's, Tom Nook's supersized department store. But don't confuse Tommy with his brother Timmy. That hurts Tommy's feelings. And don't confuse Tommy with the grand poo-bah Tom Nook. That hurts Nook's feelings!
It is notable that Tommy seems to be directly named after Tom Nook.
Additionally, Timmy and Tommy's Spanish names, when combined, are "Tendo y Nendo". This is almost certainly a pun on the name of their creators, Nintendo, who are one of the largest video game publishers around.
They both share a birthday with the smugdeerZell. They all have a birthday on the 7th of June.
