Pippi is a unique and unconventional given name of Scandinavian origin, derived from the Swedish 'Pippilotta Viktualia Rullgardina Krusmynta Efraimsdotter', which translates to 'Philip Victoria Potatoes Clara Gardenias Daughter of Efraim'. This lengthy moniker belongs to Pippi Longstocking, the adventurous and eccentric heroine created by Swedish author Astrid Lindgren in her popular children's book series. The name Pippi has since gained recognition beyond its Scandinavian roots and is now embraced worldwide as a distinct and lively choice for girls.
"The name Pippi had six newborns in 2016."
