HelpRe: Pip
in reply to a message by Amoret
It could be related to Pippin (I think of a hobbit's NN and an apple type), Pippi (Longstocking, a cartoon daughter of a sailor), and Pippa (as a British NN for Philippa), but mostly it seems like Pipsqueak.
I think of the (sarcastic) song "In an Operetta" in which it's the fake name of a princess living as a cabin boy on a pirate ship.
I think of "pip pip" which seems silly, old-fashioned, and very British.
