Toby:

I don't think it's an attempt to establish empathy, I think it's a 
jibe. He's saying "You may think you're some kind of Lord, but I know 
you're still plain old, muggle-born Tom". Might have achieved an even 
better effect if he'd called him Thomas. 

Which is why I think he really ought to be calling him Tom to 
everyone. Lord Voldemort isn't a Lord, except to him and his 
supporters. Why is Dumbledore so willing to accept his claims of 
being a Lord?
