That's it really, I really like pie but am stuck for a 'proper' name that could be shortened to this.

Thanks!

''I love the name pie'' its not a name It's a meat or veg mixture encased in or topped with pastry, why on earth would you name a child after that?

Jude89 · 28/01/2011 04:46

one of my best Friends is called Pi (Like Pie) but his name's Allen.

You could name her 3.14159265.

I would.

I actually know someone nicknamed pie, short for Patrick!

He is 6'3", blond, fitness freak and fecking gorgeous, so doesn't get teased about his name Grin

Hairy pie

My nickname is Pie,

My name is Heidi, then my friends called me Heidi-Pie, now just Pie!

Weirdly, there is an actual pie company (Think it's called Higgeldy - Waitrose stock it) and they have named a pie Heidi-Pie. But I was first.

'Piscine sounds too much like pissing to me, she would be eaten alive!'

And you think she wouldn't be eaten alive - with a name like Pie?

Shock@ BJ.... Have just googled BJ and the very first thing is entitled "How to give a good BJ" Shock

Why, why, why would you want to set your child up for such a burden?

Sadly some children do tease, and I know that even a bit of mild teasing to any of my 3DC cuts like a knifeSad

BrianAndHisBalls · 27/01/2011 21:24

Good point MoleFace, I hadnt thought of that.

I agree it is a very pretty name, Pie. Rhymes with Die for one thing.

Mouseface · 27/01/2011 21:13

Yeah but Brian - maybe she wants to counter act that by giving her DD such a stupid unusual name??

BrianAndHisBalls · 27/01/2011 21:11

GoPlay - shes a total bitch thats why. She called her ds 'Brian-John' just so he'd have the initials BJ Shock

goplayout · 27/01/2011 21:04

Seriously OP, even if you totally love the name Pie can you honestly say you want your DD to have to put up with all the cruel teasing that would follow?

Why would you want to make your daughter's life so much more difficult? Why?Confused

Sorry bitterandtwisted not Wincy Smile

PuraVida · 27/01/2011 20:36

Wincy that's why he calls himself pi, because of the treasing. Now if an Indian boy with a French name gets teased, it is certainly possible that an English girl with a similar name might be. Just sayin like
