Etymology
Tittivate is a playful verb that probably began as a small repeating sound to show tiny, careful touches; a helpful way to remember it is to think of it like tidy but with a little extra 'make pretty'. So, to tittivate something is to 'make neat, smart, or attractive' by fixing small details.
