Just found this:
Tobi And Obito.. (Spoilers)
Sorry if a thread like this has already been made! I searched for one but I didn't find any.
So, does anyone else think Tobi is Obito? Here are a few reasons why I believe that this is true:
(If you have not read the Kakashi Gaiden, I suggest you read that first before you read this, otherwise it will not make sense.)

The Name
Obito, switch a few letters around and what do ya get? ... Tobi!
Zetsu (Sp?)
Obito was in the rock country when he was crushed. Zetsu hails from the rock country and is supposed to be able to tunnel around underground since he's a plant, so, he could have found Obito while he was doing this. This would make sense, and there would be big possibilty of it since Zetsu lived there and probaly would of tunneled around often. Zetsu may have heard fighting going on and gone over to investigate. He may not of wanted to be seen since it was the Third Ninja War, and he would of been attacked. So, he tunneled around underground to not be seen. When he got there, he could have found Obito and saved him. He may of used some sort of Mind-Erasing jutsu to erase Obito's memorys so he could train him or use him as a replacement Atasuki member in case one of them died or defected. Or, Obito could have lost most of his memory when the rock hit him. That might be why he hasn't mentioned anything about his past.
Tobi's Attitude
While most of the Atasuki are really serious and always fighting, Tobi is mostly care-free and goofy. Thus resembling Obito's supposed personality.
Tobi's Mask
Tobi wears a mask to cover his face. The only thing you can see is his right eye and his hair. Obito gave his left eye to Kakashi before he died, so this could explain why his left eye is covered. But, there is one problem about this theory. Obito's right side was crushed by a rock, so his eye probaly would have been crushed too. His eye may not of though. He also has some sort of nail things in his right side, this could be what put him back together.
Tobi's Hair
You can't base a theory on hair style, but, I thought I would still include it. Also, it's the same colour.
Some Responses:
Having recently caught up on the manga I have to say it�??s an interesting theory, but I just don�??t buy it.
First, Zetsu was from the Land of Grass, not the Land of Rocks which the Land of Fire was at war with at the time. Unless it's retconned later, I don't see a real reason for Zetsu being in the area.
Second, personally I think bringing back Obito would kill the only major character development Kakashi has gotten in the entire story. Which is the primary reason I just don't like the theory.
While I suppose it's possible someone found him in time, or resurrected him (similarly to Orochimaru's bringing back the First and Second Hokages). The most probably suspect for such an act would be ninja from the Hidden Rock Village, in order to use Obito as weapon against his former teacher, the Fourth Hokage, who was considered the most feared fighter in the war at the time.
Either way, unless Kishimoto has a really good story reason for bringing back Obito, I'd rather see the character stay dead and have Tobi be a new character.
Tobi
"...refers to himself as Madara Uchiha.[9] Unlike the majority of ninja thus far, Tobi has not been shown wearing a visible forehead protector; however, his Uchiha name would suggest that his home village is Konohagakure. He wears an odd mask that covers his entire face save for his right eye, which like other Uchiha has the Sharingan."

"Madara Uchiha (�?ちは�??�??�?�, Uchiha Madara?) is a mysterious character about whom little is known. He seems to be well known by the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox, who said that Madara's chakra and eyes were even more sinister than its own at the time and that Sasuke Uchiha now holds the same chakra. Akatsuki member Tobi later refers to himself as Madara Uchiha, the mastermind behind the organization. "Madara" means "mottles" or "speckles"."
