Dolní Tošanovice (Polish: Toszonowice Dolne, German: Nieder Toschonowitz) is a village in Frýdek-Místek District, Moravian-Silesian Region, Czech Republic. It has a population of 309 (2006). It lies in the historical region of Cieszyn Silesia.
The name is patronymic in origin derived from personal name Tosz-. It was variably subscribed in the historical documents: Tessinowitz (1305), Thusnowitz (?, 1316), z Tossinowicz (1445), z Tossonowicz (1447), von Toschonowitz (1523), z Tossynowicz (1536, 1627), z Tossonowicz (1693), na Tossenowiczych (1703), Toschonowice (1724). In the 18th century the distinction between two villages developed. In 1736 both were mentioned as Nieder Toschonowitz (literally Lower; Dolní in Czech, Dolne in Polish, Nieder in German) and Ober Toschonowitz (literally Upper, Horní in Czech, Górne in Polish, Ober in German).
