Thanks! I do like [name_f]Calliope[/name_f], reminds me of the unusable [name_f]Peony[/name_f], but I could see pronunciation being tricky for some. I just can’t bring myself to use [name_f]Pippa[/name_f] as the formal name 
Why does it have to be a nickname? You can just name her [name_f]Pippa[/name_f].
