[Opinions] A proper name for the nickname 'Pippa'
I know Pippa is made for Philippa. However I don't like Philippa at all. Do you have any other suggestions?

My sister's name is Philippa but absolutely everybody calls her Pippa. She, too, abhors Philippa. :)I second Juniper and Penelope as the best fits for Pippa.
