Rather /srv/tftp ? (like /srv/ftp, /srv/www,/src/cvs) ?

Here the relevant part of the FHS 2.3 which introduce /srv:

      The methodology used to name subdirectories of /srv is unspecified
      as there is currently no consensus on how this should be done. One
      method for structuring data under /srv is by protocol, eg. ftp,
      rsync, www, and cvs. On large systems it can be useful to
      structure /srv by administrative context, such as
      /srv/physics/www, /srv/compsci/cvs, etc. This setup will differ
      from host to host. Therefore, no program should rely on a specific
      subdirectory structure of /srv existing or data necessarily being
      stored in /srv. However /srv should always exist on FHS compliant
      systems and should be used as the default location for such data.
