Meaning & origin

Tiffney is a variant spelling of Tiffany, derived from the Greek Theophania meaning manifestation of God. The name first appeared in U.S. birth records in 1962, but it saw a brief surge starting in the late 1970s, peaking in popularity in 1980. Although it never entered the top 1,000, its highest rank was 1,406 in 1994. Since then, its usage has declined and remained stable at very low levels.

Tiffney is a variant spelling of Tiffany, derived from the Greek name Theophania, meaning manifestation of God. The name was originally used in medieval Europe for girls born on the feast of Epiphany, which celebrates the manifestation of Christ to the Magi. It became popular in the English-speaking world in the 1980s, partly influenced by the Tiffany & Co. brand and the 1980s singer Tiffany.
