A nickname with quirky, old-fashioned charm, Tipper likely comes from the Irish surname, Tabar, meaning "water pourer", though it may also just be used as a playful pet name for a girl, if it happens to suit. Former Second Lady of the United States, Tipper Gore (born Mary Elizabeth), is possibly the most famous bearer, having been bestowed the nickname because her favorite childhood lullaby was "Tippy Tippy Tin".

The name has also featured in the popular TV series <em>We Were Liars</em> (and the book on which it's based), which may lead to more exposure for this otherwise rare choice.
