Subject: tepi

I am working with an AGN document involving a woman with the surname
'tepi', the meaning of which I am trying to parse (Is the 'pi' of pic,
to pluck? Any other suggestions?). I'm wondering if there is any way
that 'tepi' could jibe with a name glyph made up of a stylized stream of
water grasped by a hand, which is found in an associated image of a
woman?
