Okay, I think it would be worth you having a look at the electoral registers for that time to see how his name was listed - it might possibly confirm his middle name. (Though please don't post his name up on here when you have done that, but you can PM it to those who want to help.) There is information on this link about where the electoral registers are held - Liverpool Record Office.

They could buy copies of their original birth certificates if they don't have copies already.

The most likely reason for that is that TM wasn't available to go to the register office (at sea perhaps?) as he would have to do in order to be named on the certificate as he wasn't Marie's husband (a husband can be listed as father without him attending).

I think you need to compile a list of the exact dates of all the documents you have access to, along with what name and occupation is given for TM on each of those and what address or addresses are recorded in each case, before you try accessing the electoral rolls. A pattern may appear that may save you looking at unnecessary addresses.

I probably shouldn't post this yet, but I just wanted to get an idea of potential numbers IF (a very big if at the moment) it should turn out the information you already have is correct - that is correct middle initial and had that initial on his birth cert rather than it being added later, correct area of birth and born between say 1930 and 1945.

Searching with the above criteria there are entries as follows:

Birth reg Q3 1931 (Ancestry) - this child died aged 14 months at the end of Sept 1932 (Irish Genealogy.ie)
Birth reg Q3 1941 (Ancestry)
Birth reg Q1 1943 ditto
Birth reg Q3 1944 ditto
Birth reg Q4 1944 ditto
Birth reg Q2 1945 ditto

All the above are Cork registration district except the last one which is Bandon district which covers part of County Cork.
