Tiny Tim (egentligen Herbert Khaury, några källor anger Herbert Buckingham Khaury eller Herbert Butros Khaury), född 12 april 1932 i New York, död 30 november 1996 i Minneapolis, var en amerikansk sångare och ukulelespelare samt musikarkivarie, mest känd för sin tolkning av sången "Tiptoe Through the Tulips" vilken han sjöng med mycket säregen falsettstämma.

Han hade polsk-judiska (på moderns sida) och libanesiska familjerötter.
