[ FEW: 8,208b pep-; Gdf: 6,90b pepin; GdfC: 10,315a pepin; TL: 7,697 pepin; DEAF:  pepin; DMF:  pépin; TLF:  pépin 1; OED:  pippin n.; MED:  pipin n.; DMLBS: 2288c pipina ]
pepeim,  pepigne,  pepine,  pepyn,  pepyne;  pipin;  popyn;  pypyn  

The sense ‘small pot, jug’ is also found in Middle English, although it is not clear whether it derives from the same etymon. The surname examples may also be interpreted as pet forms of the personal name 'Philip' (see Family Names Peppin).
