Sikupilli

Sikupilli (Estonian for 'bagpipe', literally 'goat instrument') is a subdistrict (asum) in the district of Lasnamäe, Tallinn, the capital of Estonia.

[1] The Estonian common noun sikupill literally means 'goat instrument' and is a synonym for torupill 'bagpipe'.

The architectural and urban historian Robert Nerman [et] suggested that many residents of the area kept goats, and so it was named after their bleating.

Another theory connects the name with the neighboring subdistrict of Torupilli.

A third hypothesis mentions a pasture named Sikupilli in the Lasnamäe district, suggesting that this name was later extended to the neighborhood.
