Why is Pepe called Pepe?

Pepe’s creator told The Daily Dot in April 2015 that the name Pepe (though pronounced differently) evokes pee-pee, in keeping with the literal bathroom humor the original character is known for. According to Know Your Meme, users began creating their own Pepe images in 2008 in forums on the imageboard site 4chan.

How did Pepe become a meme?

Designed as a green anthropomorphic frog with a humanoid body, Pepe originated in Furie's 2005 comic Boy's Club. The character became an Internet meme when his popularity steadily grew across websites such as Myspace, Gaia Online, and 4chan in 2008. By 2015, he had become one of the most popular memes used on 4chan and Tumblr.

Did you know Pepe was a frog?

Arthur Jones: We tell a 10-year story of Pepe on the internet. Pepe went from this “feels good, man” frog, which was largely an innocuous image for people to respond to online, before emojis, before the flexible discourse of text messaging.
