Jeppesen is a Danish patronymic surname meaning "son of Jeppe", which is a Western Danish parallel form of the biblical given name Jacob. A slightly abbreviated form is Jepsen (alternatively Jebsen). The equivalent Eastern Danish form of Jacob is Ib resulting in the patronymic surname Ibsen (rarely Ipsen). People with the surname include:
