In 1919, [[Timothy Eaton statue|two life-sized statues of Timothy Eaton]] were donated by the Eaton's employees to the Toronto and Winnipeg stores in celebration of the 50th anniversary of the company. For years, it was tradition for customers in both Toronto and Winnipeg to rub the toe of the statue for good luck. The Toronto statue is now housed by the [[Royal Ontario Museum]], and the Winnipeg statue sits in the city's arena, [[Canada Life Centre]] (formerly MTS Centre and Bell MTS Place), in almost exactly the same spot where it stood in the now demolished Eaton's store (albeit one storey higher). Museum-goers in Toronto and hockey fans in Winnipeg continue to rub Timothy Eaton's toe for luck.

His grandson was flying ace [[Henry John Burden]]. In 1985, his great-great-granddaughter, [[Nancy Eaton]], was murdered by a childhood friend, who was found not guilty by [[insanity defense|reason of insanity]].

[[Timothy Eaton Memorial Church]], in Toronto, was erected in 1914.

The town of [[Eatonia, Saskatchewan]] was named after Timothy Eaton.

The ground of [[Ballymena RFC]], originally the sports grounds of the Mid-Antrim Sports Association, is called Eaton Park.

A school in the Scarborough district of Toronto, [[Timothy Eaton Business and Technical Institute]], was named after him. It opened in 1971 for classes and closed its doors permanently in 2009.
