Tifa Origin and Meaning

The name Tifa is a girl's name.

Tifa is a feminine name that gained significant recognition through the character Tifa Lockhart in the popular video game series Final Fantasy VII.

The name has a melodic quality with its soft consonants and open vowel ending. Prior to the game's release in 1997, Tifa was extremely rare, but has since developed a small but dedicated following among gaming enthusiasts and parents drawn to its modern, distinctive sound. The name carries associations of strength and loyalty based on the character's traits. Beyond gaming culture, Tifa appears occasionally in various cultures, sometimes as a variant of Tiffany or as a standalone modern creation.
