Peppie is English, Italian, Spanish in Origin.
Peppie is a lively diminutive built with the affectionate -ie suffix common in Dutch and English. Most often it comes from Peppe or Pepe - pet forms of Italian Giuseppe and Spanish José - thus sharing Joseph’s Hebrew meaning “he will add.” It can also echo Pepin/Pippin (a Frankish royal name of debated Germanic origin, often glossed as “steadfast” or “awe‑inspiring”) or align with Peppi in Nordic and Maltese usage.
As a formal given name Peppie is rare; it appears in the Netherlands - boosted by the late‑1960s TV duo Peppie en Kokkie - and as a home nickname in Italian- and Spanish‑speaking families and in English‑speaking countries. Generally unisex. Variants and relatives include Peppi, Pepi, Peppy, Peppe, Pepe, Beppe, and Pepin/Pippin.
