Matthew
Doubting Thomas, was called 'Thomas Didymus' ('Didymus' is Greek for 'twin'), but (strangely, having made such a point of it) there is no record of who his twin was. Curiouser still, , 'Thomas' is derived from the Aramaic word for ... (wait for it) ... 'twin'! Why such a fuss to tell us he is a twin, but not who is twin was? Unless, of course, it was obvious to those who wrote about him, but didn't want to shout about it. It would explain why he was so hard to convince about the nature of his brother...
Thomas is called a twin in the bible because he had a twin brother.

Doubting Thomas is what we tend to call him now because of his doubt that Jesus had actually risen but during his lifetime he was called Didymus which means twin.
Thomas Chambers and Michel Chambers Thomas Chambers is his twin
The apostle referred to as "the twin" is Thomas. He is often called "Doubting Thomas" because of his initial skepticism about Jesus' resurrection until he saw Christ's wounds. Thomas is known for his declaration of faith upon witnessing the risen Jesus, affirming him as "My Lord and my God."
There is no explicit reference in the New Testament stating that Didymus Judas Thomas is Jesus' twin brother. The belief that Thomas is Jesus' twin is based on extra-biblical sources and early Christian traditions.
