Meaning and background

The story behind Pee

Pee has English associations with urination as well as the letter p. Merriam-Webster also records a British penny-related sense. The informal bodily-function meaning is especially prominent in ordinary use, so a pet-name profile should make that public effect clear even when a household intends an initial joke. These are documented word senses, rather than evidence for an independently established traditional personal-name translation.
