PEPPA Pig fans have claimed the show picked the ‘wrong name’ for the new piglet, after Mummy Pig gave birth.

The cartoon character has welcomed her newborn in news revealed on Tuesday’s Good Morning Britain.

Mummy Pig and Daddy Pig are already parents to Peppa, four, and George, two.

Entertainment Reporter Richard Arnold, 55, told how Daddy Pig had informed him of the happy news at 5.30am, shortly before the ITV daytime show hit screens.

He then revealed the little one’s name was Evie, with the adorable character completing the family.

But some fans have said that the piglet has been given the ‘wrong name.’ 

Some Peppa Pig fans think the name for the little girl piglet should have started with an ‘I.’ 

This is because Peppa begins with a ‘P,’ and her brother’s name begins with a ‘G’ for George. 

So by starting it with an ‘I’ the three children’s names would spell out PIG. 

Whereas, because Evie’s name starts with an ‘E’ it spells out PEG. 

On social media, one person wrote: “Should have began with an I.” 

Another penned: “The name should begin with an I so the kids spell out PIG.” 

Another shared: “Should have been IVY ….. Peppa Ivy George …”

And a fourth person echoed: “Should’ve been Ivy to spell Pig.” 

Revealing the exciting news this morning, Richard Arnold said: “It brings me great joy to announce she’s here.

“It’s a beautiful thing like I say Daddy Pig has just shared these pictures with me.

“Named after Mummy Pig’s aunt Evie.”

Last month, the gender of Peppa’s mum’s unborn piglet was revealed.

And back in February, Mummy Pig’s maternity news first came to light on GMB.

At the time, Richard cut live to Mummy Pig revealing that the parent – 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”, were expecting another baby this summer. 

Speaking live from Peppatown earlier this year, Mummy Pig exclusively revealed: “Well, I’m excited to share that our family is getting even bigger because… We’re having another baby!” as she held up a scan picture to camera for viewers to see. 

Showing off her baby bump, she continued: “I’m due in the summer and we’re all so excited…”

Despite this, she added: “A little overwhelmed at the thought of having three children under five running around, but mostly just completely delighted.”
