Meaning & origin

Tiffine is a rare given name in the United States. According to Social Security records, it first appeared in 1971 and reached its peak usage in 1984. Since then, its usage has remained stable at very low numbers, with no recorded instances in recent years. The name is a phonetic variant of Tiffany, which enjoyed widespread popularity in the 1980s. Tiffine's top states of usage are not available due to its rarity, but it likely follows the pattern of its parent name, which was most common in states like California and Texas. With an estimated 1-in-N ratio too high to calculate, Tiffine represents a highly unique choice.

Tiffine is a modern, creative respelling or diminutive of Tiffany, which itself comes from the Greek name Theophania, composed of theos (God) and phainein (to show). As a given name, Tiffany gained popularity in the English-speaking world during the 1980s. Tiffine likely arose as a simplified or phonetic variant during that period.
