From The American Toby Jug Museum website:
While the origin of its moniker is unclear, it is widely believed it was named after Toby Fillpot, an infamous sot in a song called The Brown Jug that was popular in England in the late 1700s and illustrated with a mezzotint of a fat toper with a jug in hand and the verse beneath.
Whoever the creator, the Toby Jug caught the fancy of late 18th century England, with early jugs by such well known potters as Ralph Wood I and II, Enoch Wood, Thomas Hollins and William Pratt, as well as the aforementioned Astbury and Wheildon, working in Staffordshire, Leeds and Portobello areas of England.
Toby Jugs quickly became common pouring vessels at local pubs and taverns.
