I saw the name Miep too but then VV/Vievie so it was really confusing! Thanks for clearing the names up for me! I just pray that it's a quiet year for poor Pa and that he and Vievie have babies.
I too hope that Pa and his new mate will have a good year, with no territorial disputes or other problems. I don't know where the name VV (or Vievie) came from. Personally, I don't see anything wrong with the name Maria (with any spelling) for a peregrine . . .
The name VV means Vreemde Vrouw (Unknown Women).And then some people called her Miep,just a woman's name.
I hope this is a better year for Pa and his mate. Thanks for your information.Greetings Carla
