Opinions on this name? Is it too associated with the dreaded Peppa?

It's a hard-knock life...

You can tell this forum is like 99% female. The biggest pepper (sic) is 'Pepper Potts', from the MCU and Iron man, played by Gwyneth paltrow. Likely to be a lot more popular from this. Did DP suggest it? Don't think it's bad, but every male for at least the next 20+ years will see this association instantly.

There's a Pepper in Annie isn't there? I think it's quite sweet. But people will be AWFUL about it.

Ooo could you use it as a middle name... first name "belle"? Though it's probably a joke that works better in America than here.

Another vote here for Piper.

It's really silly, sorry.

Absolutely not. Right up there with Brandi. Another wtf?! name.

There was a girl called Pepper on American Horror story. I actually like Piper too, as mentioned above

Unused to love with a cat called pepper (she did not have sister called salt ‘n). Think this is just a silly name to give a child.

I'm old enough to remember Angie Dickinson as Pepper Anderson in Policewoman. I ever even thought of the pig.

SumAndSubstance · 16/01/2019 23:36

What? No.

MargotLovedTom1 · 16/01/2019 23:36

Or a seasoning?
And yes, Peppa Pig.

My opinion is that it would be a bit daft to name your child after a condiment.

Piper would be a slightly better option.

LittleBearPad · 16/01/2019 23:36

It’s food or a small annoying pig.

MargotLovedTom1 · 16/01/2019 23:35

I feel that it's a condiment, not a name.
