Peppa Pig fans shocked after discovering answer to 21-year-old mystery

Peppa Pig fans have been left shocked after discovering the cartoon character's real name. Despite being on our screens for 21 years, fans of the show had no idea what the first name was of the main character. In February, viewers were baffled by the 'bonkers' way Mummy Pig chose to announce her pregnancy. The cartoon appeared on Good Morning Britain where she exclusively informed presenter Richard Arnold that she was expecting her third child. Some viewers questioned whether they were hallucinating as they watched the breakfast show. But now it appears there is even more drama with the show after it was revealed that Peppa is in fact the pig's middle name. Did you know Peppa Pig's real name? According to Good Find Toys, Peppa's full name is Pepperius Peppa Pig, MailOnline reported. @shannonnx14 wrote on X: 'Peppa pigs full name is Pepperius Peppa Pig. You learn something new every day.' Last year, Metro exclusively revealed how despite becoming one of the most popular children's TV show ever made, 20 years ago bosses were concerned about people 'getting on board' with Peppa Pig. Celebrating the 20th anniversary of the show, Richard Ridings, known as Daddy Pig, said: 'At the time I thought a family of pigs was a bit weird. 'But as soon as you see it, you get it, and hear the script and how witted they are, it does make sense.' He added: 'I thought, I wanted to be involved even if it was tiny, but who could imagine it being so big across the world.' More Trending Peppa Pig first aired on TV Channel 5 back in May 2004. Created by Astley Baker Davies, the show has been broadcast in over 180 countries and dubbed in over 40 languages. View More » Peppa Pig is available to watch on Channel 5. Got a story?

Peppa Pig fans left 'screaming' after only now discovering the iconic hog's real name - ahead of the birth of her new piglet sibling

Peppa Pig fans have been left 'screaming' after only now discovering the iconic cartoon character's real name, despite her having been on TV for a whopping 21-years. As excitement builds for the birth of the swine's baby sister, following a huge gender reveal, fans have learned that Peppa is in fact the swine's middle name. With her full name being: Pepperius Peppa Pig, as reported by Good Find Toys. Many have been left gobsmacked by the revelation and took to X writing: 'Peppa Pig's real name being Pepperius Peppa Pig is making me scream!'. 'DID YOU KNOW "Peppa" is Peppa Pig's middle name and her full name is Pepperius Peppa Pig': 'Do you know Peppa Pig's real name? it's actually Papperius Peppa Pig!': 'Peppa Pigs full name is Pepperius Peppa Pig. You learn something new every day'. It comes after fans were left squealing with delight after a huge gender reveal party at London's Battersea Power Station announced the family were expecting a girl. Mummy Pig, whose job involves doing 'very important work' on her computer, and her husband Daddy Pig, who 'takes big numbers, transmutes them and calculates their load-bearing tangents', first announced their surprise pregnancy in February. Good Morning Britain 's showbiz correspondent Richard Arnold landed the exclusive, as Mummy Pig showed off her ultrasound and baby bump and revealed she was due in the summer. The global smash hit cartoon celebrated the gender reveal news with a VIP party at the world's first-ever permanent Peppa Pig store at Battersea on Friday, featuring fundraising in support of NCT, the UK's leading charity for pregnancy and parents. NCT (National Children's Trust) was announced earlier this month as the official 'Pregnancy and Parenting Charity Partner' for Peppa Pig in the UK. And the excitement doesn't stop there as fans can join the Pig family on the big screen with Peppa Meets the Baby, a brand-new cinema experience launching May 30 in over 2,600 cinemas across 19 countries. The hour-long, song-filled screening features 10 brand-new episodes, as Peppa and George prepare for the arrival of their baby sister. In addition, the gender reveal episode will air on YouTube on May 3 as part of the Peppa Pig Tales series. Speaking to Grazia magazine about her pregnancy, Mummy Pig revealed she and Daddy Pig had 'so many ideas' for baby names. They wrote: 'Peppa Pig's real name being Pepperius Peppa Pig is making me scream!' She revealed: 'Too many, frankly! Oink! Knowing it's a girl has narrowed our options down a bit – I'm not sure Peter, Percy or Patrick Pig really work as girls' names! But it's too difficult to choose now. 'When she's here and looking up at me and Daddy Pig, we'll just know the perfect name. That's what we did when Peppa and George were born.' Peppa Pig first aired in 2004 and has since been broadcast in 180 territories and translated into 40 languages. It's spawned books, toys and even two theme parks, with the global Peppa empire now worth over £1billion. Creators Neville Astley and Mark Baker admitted they were worried the idea would never get off the ground, and that people were initially bored with the idea. People in the pub would ask us, 'What are you drawing?' We'd say, 'A pig, called Peppa, it's going to be big.' They'd lose interest and wander off', explained Astley. The pair created Peppa and her family while working in each other's houses or at the local pub. They told the Radio Times they were inspired by 1970s and 1980s cartoon classics including Roobarb and Pingu, after realising that children 'like stories about animals'. 'We'd made this little trailer for Peppa but hadn't got anywhere,' recalled Baker. 'It's very difficult to sell your own creative work. The good thing about Phil is he's quite thick-skinned.' They soon found an energetic little girl, Lily Snowden-Fine, to voice Peppa - despite her being only four years old and unable to read, instead repeating lines spoken by her mother. When her family moved to Canada, the job went to Cecily Bloom. She was followed by Harley Bird. The current voice of Peppa is Amelie Bea Smith. The creators explained that the secret to Peppa's long-lasting appeal is the show's simplicity, as well as ensuring the piglet is never the butt of the jokes. 'We put a lot of work into making everything look as effortless as possible,' said Baker. 'We can laugh at the adults, but children don't like it if we laugh at the children in the show.'
