Tiffany is the medieval English form of the Greek Theophania ("manifestation of God") — same root as the Christian feast of Epiphany. **Originally a name traditionally given to girls born on Epiphany (January 6)**; revived in the 1960s after **Truman Capote's *Breakfast at Tiffany's* (1958) and Blake Edwards's 1961 film starring Audrey Hepburn made the name an icon of New York aspiration**. **A top-20 US baby name from 1980 to 1997, peaking at #13 in 1988**. **Tiffany Haddish (born 1979)** — American comedian; first Black woman to host *Saturday Night Live* (2017). **Tiffany & Co.** — luxury jeweler founded 1837 — gave Manhattan's Fifth Avenue its diamond cachet.
Featured throughout late-20th-century American culture; subject of Sam Wasson's *Fifth Avenue, 5 A.M.* (2010).
Tiffany reduces to five — the number of Epiphany.
