Otto Titzling is a fictional character who is apocryphally described as the inventor of the brassiere in a book Bust Up: The Uplifting Tale of Otto Titzling, published by Macdonald in London in 1971 and by Prentice-Hall in the USA.
The name, a pun on "a two-boob sling," was invented by humorist Wallace Reyburn in the 1970s. Since then, the name has appeared in the game Trivial Pursuit, the 1988 movie Beaches features a song by this name sung by Bette Midler, and has appeared in practice questions sent out to prospective teams by the BBC 2 show University Challenge.
A similar situation exists with Thomas Crapper, who was a real-life plumber and invented the toilet but did not invent the flush toilet.
