All over the world, Pekka (Pekka 
, بيكا 
, Пекка 
, among others...) is quite a common predominantly boy's, but very seldom female given name. The forename Pekka is habitual in Finland, where it is quite a common male name, Libya, where it is quite a rare largely masculine, but infrequently female name, and Sweden, where it is quite a rare boy's name. Not in comparison with a country's population, the name is most common in Finland, Egypt, and Libya. Also, Pekka is the last name as well as the forename.
Pekka is also a name for the fictitious and mythical characters: Pekka Puupää , the film and comics character, Pete and Runt; Pekka Lipponen and Pekka Koivu .
