Hipeponymous is a limited-edition boxed set by Canadian rock band The Tragically Hip. It was released on November 1, 2005

Hipeponymous contains a 2-CD compilation of remastered songs voted for by fans entitled Yer Favourites, a full-length concert DVD entitled That Night In Toronto, recorded on November 26, 2004 at the Air Canada Centre, and a DVD of bonus features which includes all of the band's music videos, a backstage documentary entitled Macroscopic, and a short film entitled The Right Whale which features 11 visual vignettes set to new original scores written by the band, packaged in a 48-page leatherbound book depicting various Hip memorabilia.

The name Hipeponymous derives from the word "eponymous", which means "self-titled", and is a play on hippopotamus, while That Night In Toronto refers to the location of the concert as well as to a lyric from the song Bobcaygeon.
