But when Priyanka was a toddler, she realised that her nickname Mithu does not suit her personality. An astounding fact is that Priyanka Chopra changed her nickname herself to Mimi. She added, that during her childhood days, she had heard Mimi somewhere, and that's when she decided, it's "Mimi" that she needs to be called. Priyanka Chopra told her father the same, but he wasn't convinced, so she had a word with her mother who loved the name, Mimi.
