This makes you think that which character is a mockingbird and to kill a mockingbird means which one loses their innocence that is the one who is killed and the one who lives is the mockingbird. This gives the reader a sense of confusion while thinking about this question because they can almost decide whether which character is the mockingbird Boo Radley or Thomas Robinson.
Tom Robinson is a physically handicapped man almost like Boo in a sense Tom is also a racist man who the town treats Tom with almost as much hatred or prejudice as Boo Radley.
His character stays invisible for the most part the only time you really read about Tom is when word of his trial is brought up whether he is guilty or innocent.
