Are there any common Jewish names which might have the nickname Pepi?
I've just googled it, and I must say none pop out. A child might be nicknamed Pepi for a variety of reaasons but I wonder if a Maiden Aunt would be more likely to replicate the name if it was based on a proper first name.
If I were you - and you sound desperate! - I should pursue the Penelope option just as a wild guess.
