WIPPO. Old
German name, probably of Norse origin, meaning "like a whip," from vippa (to move rapidly).
It has the diminutive form Wiebe.
The names
signifying woman are attended with more difficulty and doubt, owing to the
manner in which men's names intermix, sometimes from the same apparent
root. Thus there are several which appear to be from Ang.-Sax. wîf,
Old High Germ. wîp, Mod. Germ. weib, wife or woman.
But among the ancient names there are some that are those of men, and
Förstemann thinks that the root of weban, to weave, intermixes.
Or, I should rather suggest, Old Norse vippa, to move rapidly, Eng.
"whip." Wippo was the name of a mythical Frankish king, (Grimm's
Deutsch, Myth. 277.). (The Teutonic Name System &c.,
Ferguson, 1864)
