Meaning & History

Literally taken from the English word gratuity, which is an additional payment given freely as thanks for service. It is ultimately derived from Medieval Latin gratuitas meaning “a free gift”, then from Latin gratuitus meaning “freely given, free”.

Notable bearer of this name is Gratuity "Tip" Tucci, the protagonist character in 2007 children's book by Adam Rex The True Meaning of Smekday, and the animated movie Home (2015), which is based on the children's book.
