Pippa vs. Full vs. Name?

Hi, I really like the name Pippa, but I think it’s a better nickname than full name. I know that Phillipa is the traditional full name for Pippa, but I don’t really like it. Are there any others? Thanks.

Well, going with the thought that nicknames don’t always have to be perfect to the name (Like Pearl and Peggy for Margaret)

Any P name you like?
Penelope
Piper
Persephone
Phoebe
Patricia
Paloma
Paige

or names that have "pe" "pa" or "pi" in them...
Calliope
Opal
Olympia

If your going to be calling her by Pippa, why not use the name Pippa its nice enough, not keen on nicknames my kids are called by their full names

I can answer about nicknames - sometimes someone likes the nickname of a name but knows that their child might not like being Molly forever and wants to give them a name that will give them options later- and will allow their resumes and such to look a bit more professional. Speaking as a Rebecca who goes by Becky among family and friends I much prefer my name- Rebecca- when at work.

Pamona is ok, not my favorite, I like Paris, though!

I like Pamona. Paris, personally, sounds more nicknamey to me than Pippa if you’re worried about that though.

Pippa is ugly, no offense.

Consider that you may not like Philippa (usually spelled with one l, by the way), but your child might. With Pippa, there is no choice of something longer. With Philippa, you child could choose Philippa, Pippa, or even Phil. I’ve hear of women before with the nickname Phil, e.g. for Philomena or Phyllis. Patricia, Paula, Paola, or Philomena are all nice names. Philomena means "friend, lover" + "strength." Hope this helps.
