What does Tiffany mean?
Tiffany ▼ as a girls' name is pronounced TIF-a-nee. It is of Greek origin, and the meaning of Tiffany is "revelation of God". Variant of the Greek Theophania. In many Christian countries, girls born on January 6, the Feast of the Epiphany, are given some form of this name. The feast commemorates the day when the three Magi saw the infant Jesus. To modern Christians, the Magi were Gentiles, and thus their visit to the baby Jesus is the "revelation of God" to the non-Jewish world. Now, the name is associated with Tiffany & Co, the New York jeweler, giving it connotations of upper-class luxury. Donald Trump named his baby Marla Maples Tiffany. Actress Tiffani Thiessen.
