Pippa

[Franchini]

Can I have you opinions on whether you think the name Pippa will become more popular over the next year due to the whole royal wedding thing and Pippa Middleton?

[rachel234]

It probably will. Personally I don't like it.

[MrsPlugThePlumber]

Oh, I love the name "Pippa" though would put "Philippa" on the Birth cert.

Never thought of the royal wedding connection, but now you say it perhaps there will be a little influx of them.

Surely it won't make it to the top ten, though? Everyone will have forgotten in a couple of years or so...

[Meteorite]

Not sure whether it will become more popular, maybe a bit.

I like Pippa, as nickname for Philippa.

[AlmaMartyr]

Might become a bit more popular, probably not much though. I get the impression that the media are more enamoured with Pippa Middleton than anyone else.

I love the name though.

[pinkytheshrinky]

I do quite like it but i would never use it because of her royal - it is a good name for a dog though

[BedHog]

Not in Greece - it's a slang term for 'having a wank' there!

I think quite possibly yes, I rather like Pippa, but absolutely hate Philipa!

[BatmanLovesRobin]

Philippa means 'lover of horses'.

Just thought I'd throw that in

My friend has a Philippa nn Pippa, and she's not impressed that it may become so popular!

[Rhubarbgarden]

My friend Philippa was shocked to read recently that it is one of the fastest growing names in popularity. I've no idea where she read that though. I think it's a lovely name, especially with Pippa as a nickname (my friend is Flipper; less nice...)

This is my sisters all time fav baby name. I have never come across someone else who likes it!

[Stars22]

I have heard of a couple of babies been born recently called Pippa. I know a 4 yr old and and 40 yr Pippa also. I think it has started to become more popular since Pippa Middleton.

I like it but prefer Polly.
