pippinn.

Brit. /ˈpɪpɪn/, U.S. /ˈpɪpᵻn/
Forms: Middle English pipyn, Middle English popyn, Middle English pypen, Middle English pypin, Middle English pypioun, Middle English pypyn, Middle English pypyne, Middle English–1500s pepyn, Middle English–1500s pepyne, Middle English–1700s pipin, Middle English–1700s (1900s– rare) pepin, 1500s pepine, 1500s pippyn, 1500s pyppen, 1500s pyppin, 1500s (1800s– English regional (Cheshire)) peppin, 1500s–1600s pippine, 1500s–1600s pipping, 1500s– pippin, 1600s pepion, 1600s peppine (Scottish), 1600s piepin, 1600s pupping, 1600s–1700s (1800s English regional (northern)) pippen.
Origin: A borrowing from French. Etymon: French pepin.
Etymology: < Anglo-Norman pepin, pepine, popin and Middle French pepin (French pépin ) seed or pip of a fleshy fruit (c1175 in Old French), seedling apple tree (early 13th cent. in Old French; now regional (Normandy)), of uncertain origin: probably ultimately a derivative of an expressive Romance base meaning ‘small’ (see Französisches etymol. Wörterbuch at pep-); compare Spanish pepita seed, kernel (see pepita n.), and perhaps Italian regional (Tuscany) pippo, pippolo grain, seed, kernel. Compare ( < French) post-classical Latin pipina (12th cent. in a British source), Middle Dutch pippinc, puppinc (Dutch pipping, †pupping), Middle Low German pippinc.Connection with classical Latin pepō pepon n. is unlikely. With form pepion compare French pépion (c1660; now regional); with form pupping perhaps compare early modern Dutch pupping (see above). In sense 1c after Spanish pepita pepita n. (compare French pépin , in the same sense (1617)). With sense 3a perhaps compare the following example of uncertain meaning:c1450 in T. Wright & R. P. Wülcker Anglo-Saxon & Old Eng. Vocab. (1884) I. 562/1 Acumen [perh. read Acrumen, i.e. a crab- apple], anglice, a popyn. It is unclear whether the following early example (in sense 1) is to be interpreted as Middle English or Anglo-Norman:1348–9 in J. T. Fowler Extracts Acct. Rolls Abbey of Durham (1899) II. 549 In duabus libr. de Resyns sanz pepyn empt. apud Ebor., 2 s. 3 d. It is possible that earlier currency could be shown by a surname (Steph. Pypin (1297)), although this could reflect the Anglo-Norman rather than the Middle English word, and it is anyway perhaps more likely to show a pet form of the male forename Philip.
1.
a. A seed or pip of any of various fleshy fruits. Now English regional (chiefly northern).The use of pippin appears to have included all the kinds of fruit seed for which pip (pip n.2) is now used, and other kinds in addition.
