Timothy "Timmy" Nook and Thomas "Tommy" Nook, collectively known as the Nooklings (まめつぶ, Mametsubu^?), are twin apprentices of Tom Nook, the tanuki (raccoon outside Japan) who runs the town's store. Their full names are first revealed in New Leaf. The Nooklings are simply known as Timmy and Tommy in prior games, where they work as clerks on the upper floor of Nookington's, which Tom Nook owns. The upper floor sells furniture, flooring, and carpets. In Animal Crossing: New Leaf however, they run their own establishment, the Nookling Stores. Timmy and Tommy serve the same function as Tom Nook in previous games - both can buy items the player is selling, show the player the catalog, and state how much turnips are selling for.

Timmy and Tommy attempt to speak in unison, but one always lags behind the other, causing one to repeat every last word the other says. In New Leaf, they instead make quiet remarks after speaking as they rarely appear alongside each other. They are twins and both share resemblance to Tom Nook, even mimicking some of his phrases. Apparently, from some discussions with Tom Nook, the two can be distinguished by a mole on one of their hands. Timmy is slightly more high pitched, but is revealed to be older than Tommy.

The exact nature of their relationship with Tom Nook is unclear. In earlier games, Timmy and Tommy are suggested to be Tom's sons or nephews. But Nook states in Animal Crossing: Wild World that he has no relation to Timmy and Tommy, and that they are simply his employees. In later games, certain villagers mention that Tom Nook found the Nooklings as orphans and adopted them.

Their names appear to be simply derived from Tom Nook's. Their Japanese names come from mame, bean, and tsubu, grain, referring to their small size. Both also end with "-kichi", same as Tom Nook's Japanese name, Tanukichi.

Appearances

In every Animal Crossing game before New Leaf, Timmy and Tommy work at Nookington's in the second floor.

Doubutsu no Mori (film)

Timmy and Tommy have minor roles in Doubutsu no Mori (film). They appear in two different booths at the Fireworks Show on the Fourth of July.

Animal Crossing: New Leaf

Timmy and Tommy run the town's store, as Tom Nook now runs Nook's Homes. Only one of them will be in the store at a time (except T&T Emporium, where one works on each floor) because they work shifts. These shifts are different for each variation of the store. Similar to Tom Nook's Store in previous games, Timmy and Tommy's store will be remodeled and expanded after certain requirements are met. The remodeling order is as follows: Nookling Junction, T&T Mart, Super T&T, T.I.Y., and T&T Emporium.

Animal Crossing: New Horizons

In Animal Crossing: New Horizons, Timmy and Tommy operate the Nook Inc. development venture along with Tom Nook. In the beginning of the game, Timmy would sell and buy items inside Resident Services while Tommy would walk around the island and offer helpful advice when talked to. Later in the game, the player gets the option of helping them open up their shop, Nook's Cranny. Once doing so, both Timmy and Tommy will start working there.

Other Appearances

Super Smash Bros. Brawl

	#284 Tommy & Timmy Nook
	When Nookway gets remodeled into Nookington's, these twins make their appearance as second-floor salesmen. Tommy's in charge of greeting customers, while Timmy trails along offering support and echoing his older brother's words. Their earnest dedication coupled with their inherent cuteness makes this diminutive duo quite popular.

Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U

Timmy and Tommy appear in the Villager's Final Smash, Dream Home, and as a trophy. While the trophy designs and descriptions are the same for both of the versions, the player must complete a certain challenge in both the 3DS and Wii U version.

3DS   Wii U	#131 Timmy & Tommy
	NTSC-U: These twin brothers operate the Nookling stores. Thanks to Tom Nook's teachings, they are just as talented as he is and run Nookling Junction with such success that it can expand several times. Despite their success, they never forget the core value of good customer service. PAL: These twin brothers start off with the little shop Nookling Junction, but they seem to have learned a little something from Tom Nook, and it doesn't take long before the T&T Emporium is open for business! (So fancy.) But no matter how big and impressive their shops get, they've still got a lot to learn...
	Play Trophy Rush for the first time (3DS). Collect 300 unique trophies (Wii U).

Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp

Timmy and Tommy appear in Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp, and run the Nookling Global pop-up shop, which is located in the Market Place. They sell furniture items that are not available through crafting, and three items are on sale at a time.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

Timmy & Tommy return in Villager's Final Smash, Dream Home, and also appear in Isabelle's Final Smash, Dream Town Hall, where it functions similarly. In addition, they operate a shop in the World of Light, where they sell other Spirits.

Trivia

• In Animal Crossing: City Folk, if the player is in the second floor of Nookington's at closing time, Timmy and Tommy will tell them that they must go to bed.
• In Animal Crossing: New Leaf, they state that they do not offer a point system in their store. This is most likely a reference to the Tom Nook Point System in Wild World and City Folk.
• Bones, a lazy dog villager, is named Tomi in the Japanese versions of the games.
• They are both twins and have the star sign gemini which is represented by two people.
