Pia ????????? tell me you would NOT do that and have kids teasing her about pee.

Astrid isn't very pretty, but I'd certainly choose it over Pia

if you like the ia ending for a short name - I know all of these: Dia, Mia, Kia, Gia, Lia, Nia, and Tia. honest - I know at least one of each of those names

I know a Sierra who gets called Sia for short. Rhea is also pronounced like that, as in the actress Rhea Perlman I think is the last name.

what even made you come up with Pia?

While I like a lot of the -ia names (Mia, Lia/Leah, Amelia, Tia, etc.), I can't get past how Pia will sound to a bunch of kids. I know Pia is a real name, but I personally wouldn't choose to use it. Astrid is NMS either, but I prefer it to the teasing potential of Pia.

I went to HS with a few girls named Pia, no one ever called them pee, but we were just probably too old for potty jokes. Actually that didn't even occur to me at all, they were all pretty popular cheerleader types. I like it, but not something I would name my own child :)

Although Im not a fan of the name, my vote was for Astrid. I knew a girl in school named Pia and they teased that poor girl all the time about Pia peeing her pants. I just know children can be mean and think you should give a little consideration to that. Good Luck!
