I thought "tittle" was the little laugh I made when I heard words like "tittle."
sam - nope, that's a "titter." :)
Wikipedia claims a broader definition for the term 'tittle'.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tittle
Tittles must be the aglets of languages.
I care not one jot nor tittle for this fact.
I went looking for definitions of jot to see if it was related in some way, and found:
Jot
or Iota, the smallest letter of the Greek alphabet, used metaphorically or proverbially for the smallest thing (Matt. 5:18); or it may be = yod, which is the smallest of the Hebrew letters.
So an i is a jot and a tittle.
That's just idle tittle-tattle.
I did know that because my last name is Tittel! And everyone misspells it Tittle...
