Tom Riddle killed his father because he thought muggles were filth and wanted to avenge his mother by killing his father and his father's parents (his grandparents, who were also muggles)
Also because his father abandoned his mother.
His birth name was Tom Marvolo Riddle. He hated his name, because his father was a muggle. However, he made Lord Voldemort out of Tom Marvolo Riddle. If you rearrange the letters Tom Marvolo Riddle can say "I am Lord Voldemort." You see him demonstrate this in HP and the Chamber of Secrets.
He didn't exactly spare him; he tried to kill him but failed.
Tom's mother was Merope Gaunt who was a squib. Her father was Marvolo Gaunt, who was the namesake of Tom's middle name. They were decsendents of Salazar Slytherin and Merope was disowned for using a love potion to make a muggle, Tom Riddle fall in love with her. Right after she had Tom jr. she ran out of love potion and Tom sr. left her.
It depends on how many one wizard or witch has. for example, Lord Voldemort had six and a seventh one he never meant to make which was Harry Potter. to be able to have a horcrux that person will have to murder others which will cause their soul to split. like Lord Voldemort, he split his soul into seven pieces. in the harry potter films, one by one they were destroyed. if a horcrux gets destroyed that witch or wizard will feel pain or die if only spliting their souls once. but Lord Voldemort as known as Tom Marvolo Riddle, was obsessed with not dying even at an early age causing him to create so many.

Tom Riddle a.k.a Lord Voldemort cast the killing curse at Harry Potter with the Elder Wand. Harry Potter deflected the spell and because Harry owned the Elder Wand it left Voldemort's hand and flew to Harry leaving Voldemort defenceless and he was hit by the rebounding curse.
The main antagonist in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows is Lord Voldemort, a dark wizard seeking to conquer the wizarding world and kill Harry Potter. Nagini, Voldemort's snake, also plays a key role as an antagonist in the story.

Lord Voldemort. When Harry was a one year old, Lord Voldemort came to his house with a plan to kill him. Lord Voldemort accomplished killing Lilly and James, Harry's parents. But not Harry. When Voldemort tried to kill him with the killing curse, It did nothing but put that scar on his head, and a part of Voldemort's soul was now in that scar. That is why Voldemort was so weak, Because he gave his soul away without meaning too. And that made him a horcrux. A horcrux has parts of Voldemort's soul into it. And the only way Harry could kill him, is if he died as well.
He didn't exactly spare him; he tried to kill him but failed.

He got it when he was an infant, by Lord Voldemort, when Lord Voldemort killed harry Potter's parents and tried to kill Harry potter but couldn't. Only left a scar on his forehead. Watch the movie.
