Arg... I would just be calling her Timpani. One part dyslexia, one part hastiness, one part love of big drums.

I knew a Tiphanie once. Stupid spelling but at least it made sense.

What exactly makes the "ee" sound? Ergh, people and their made-up grammar!

It's a French form of Tiffany, but the pronounciation is not supposed to be the same.

i'd say tif-AIN.

horrible job on the parents' part.

At first glance, I thought someone had posted something about a drug/chemical. >_>

Ditto!

I would say it that way, too.

It's the original form, along with Tiphania. People simplified it into Tiffany many centuries ago though :)

Tiphaine is French.
