Do you want to tell him, or should I?
"It's five letters, one word. The name is changed. We made it simpler. We removed the P. The P was getting in between us. We're entering the age of Diddy. A lot of my peeps in music been calling me Diddy, so it's not a drastic change for them. But people around the world didn't know what to call me. We was at (Madison Square Garden) rocking with Jay-Z. The last time I was there, half the crowd was chanting 'P Diddy', half the crowd chanting 'Diddy'. We gonna stop the confusion. 'Diddy. Diddy, Diddy!' Simple. To the point and it sounds strong. It sounds like something is about to happen. It sounds like something is about to go down in history."
"diddy = adj. small, tiny or insignificant"
"Diddymen = British midget troupe (usually puppets, sometimes live actors) who appeared on stage with variety show entertainer Ken Dodd throughout the 1960's and '70's"

What an arrogant silly little man...should this really be prime time on every news channel when other things that are so important get little to no mention...like Madonna falling off her new horse..oh yes silly me that was also big news. Gosh the media must have been in a frenzy with all this excitment going on yesterday!

I would like to suggest a combination of his former names, i.e. "Piddle"!

In Scotland, a diddy is someone who is a bit of a tit. Which seems to sum him up nicely.
