Tibben, a nickname formerly used for the Mennonites in the [[Netherlands|Netherlands]]. In 1549 the name "Tip" was given to the Mennonite woman Hadewych in Leeuwarden. In the trial of the martyr [[Reytse Aysesz (d. 1574)|Reytse Aysesz]]in 1574 there is a question concerning "Mennonites and Tibben." In a mandate issued in 1612 in the district of [[Twente (Overijssel, Netherlands)|Twente]] in the Dutch province of [[Overijssel (Netherlands)|Overijssel]] is found the phrase "the congregation of the Tibben or [[Anabaptism|Anabaptists]]." In the same year mention is made of the "Mennonites or Tibben" who are numerous in [[Westphalia (Germany)|Westphalia]]. In the Dutch town of [[Deventer (Overijssel, Netherlands)|Deventer]]is found the Tibbensteeg (narrow street). In the province of Groningen the name of Tibben for Mennonites was still common in the 18th century. Thus it can be asserted that the name Tibben was formerly used in [[Friesland (Netherlands)|Friesland]], Groningen, Overijssel, and Westphalia; the name was unknown in Holland and Flanders.

The meaning of the word Tibben is not clear. It is thought to have been derived from a Christian name Tibbe, or the family name Tibma of a person who would have been a follower of [[Menno Simons (1496-1561)|Menno Simons]], but such a name is unknown. Some are of the opinion that it was derived from a hamlet in Friesland near [[Dokkum (Friesland, Netherlands)|Dokkum]]. [[Broese van Groenou, Herman (1822-1894)|Broese van Groenou]] thinks the word is etymologically connected with the Flemish verb dubben, Latin dubitare. Then a Dibbe or Tibbe would be a dubious person, who cannot be trusted; the word dubbe in Flemish also means hypocrite. But this explanation is too farfetched; moreover the name Tibben for Mennonites was unknown in Flanders. Several interpretations of the word Tibben do not satisfy. The most satisfactory one is still the view of de Hoop Scheffer (Doopsgezinde Bijdragen [1882]: 40) that the Mennonites were sometimes called Tibben after a certain, now unknown, person named Tibbe (or Tjibbe), a corruption of Thiebout.
