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

Thanks!

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.

Hairy pie

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

You could name her 3.14159265.

I would.

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

''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?

is this serious? or a joke?

My DD's NN is Bobbins. Nothing like her real given name.
OP, if you are serious about this, I think you are exceptionally cruel. Nothing funny about being called pie.

AllieW · 28/01/2011 10:08

I'm really not keen on the idea of Pie as a nickname, far too much tormenting potential.

Why not something similar, like Pip, which could be short for Pippa?

Pia is a lovely girls name imo.

TallulahdoesthehulainHawaii · 28/01/2011 19:12

Ahhh fuck it, call your baby Pie. Makes for an interesting life doesn't it?

cupofteaplease · 28/01/2011 20:23

I used to call dd1 Pie-Pie!
It used to be Sweety Pie, or Honey Pie, or Lovely Pie etc then it just became Pie-Pie! Silly really, and stopped when she went to school. Can't imagine it as a full name, but that's just me.

BitterAndTwistedChoreDodger · 28/01/2011 21:29

I'm reconsidering and now thinking of Pepper. I seem to have a fondness for names that are also foodstuffs Confused

Any nice German Girls names so I can stop using my kitchen cupboards as inspiration?

Pepper Pie is good. Adelbert Pepper Pie is very good.

Pie is simple.

I am a little bit hysterical after reading this thread.

"I like it with a silent F: Fpie"

iwastooearlytobeayummymummy · 28/01/2011 21:43

sorry to butt in but I know a really hideous woman called Pie, and her real name is CherryAnn,

BitterAndTwistedChoreDodger · 28/01/2011 21:43

Asta? Greta? Heidi? Gah! this is too bloody difficult.

BitterAndTwistedChoreDodger · 28/01/2011 21:44

So Pepper is a No then?

BaroqueAroundTheClock · 28/01/2011 22:29

I'm not sure on Pie or Pepper given that I know what your other DD's name is Grin
