I think Noah "Teddy" is really cute! It's not quite the same, but there was a boy in my year named Andrew Zebulon Surname, and he was always called Zeb. Period. In old yearbooks, it even lists him as Surname, Andrew (Zeb). I didn't know that it was part of his middle name and not just an odd nickname until we graduated. I expect Noah "Teddy" could work much the same way. Make a note with the teachers that he's called Teddy, and they'll generally respect that.
Another almost-related anecdote: I call my sister by her middle name all the time, and none of her friends bat an eye when they hear Sara being called Jean or Jeanie. Of course, no one really bats an eye at me for much of anything, lol--they've gotten used to my eccentricities! ;)
In short, Teddy and Tori Kate would be pretty much the cutest thing ever. If it sticks, make it stick for good. :D

"Yes," said Laura.
