Etymology
The word 'hepper' has its roots in the slang of the late 20th century, particularly during the rise of youth culture in the 1960s and 1970s. It evolved from the term 'hip', which referred to someone who was knowledgeable about the latest trends, especially in music, fashion, and lifestyle. The influence of jazz culture, where 'hip' was first used, contributed significantly to the development of related terms like 'hep' and 'hep-cat' to describe fashionable and trendy individuals. Over the years, 'hepper' has been embraced in various youth subcultures, reflecting changing styles and attitudes. Although its usage might have fluctuated, it signifies a vibrant and engaging aspect of social identity related to being aware and up-to-date with cultural phenomena.
