Baby bottles have nipples.

Also, those little nuts in a bicycle wheel rim that hold the spokes in place and apply tension to them? They are called spoke nipples.

This numbnut that is harassing you will have a heart attack if he ever brings a bike with a broken spoke into a shop.

Some sort of short connector in plumbing is called a nipple, also.
