If a captain is not available at the appropriate time, another person has to ensure that the list of nominated players is given to an umpire. There are no restrictions on who this other person is.
However, once the nomination is completed, must it be someone on the list who actually tosses?
Thanks.

The decision as to whether the winner of the toss wishes to bat or field has to be made immediately after the toss, and this decision can only be made by a nominated player, then logically it should be a nominated player who makes the toss.

gooders : do you mean that this nominated person may not be a deputy who is actually going to deputies for his captain after the TOSS ?

Law 1.3(b) is quite clear—once the teams have been nominated (which process is covered in 1.2) "only a nominated player can act as deputy".

No-one is specifically named as Deputy Captain - any one of the ten nominated players can act when required - different players at different times!
