The name and first pictures of Peppa Pig's baby sister have been revealed as the family welcome a new member.
The animated show, which has told the story of Peppa, Daddy Pig, Mummy Pig, and her little brother George for more than two decades, announced the pregnancy in February.

ITV's Good Morning Britain presenter Richard Arnold shared the first photographs of baby Evie.
Arnold said: "Daddy Pig has just shared these pictures with me of Peppa's brand new baby sister Evie, named after Mummy Pig's Aunt Evie, she was born at 5.34am this morning."
The gender of the baby was revealed in April when the chimneys of London's Battersea Power Station were lit up in pink to show Mummy Pig was expecting another girl.
The animated show later announced an hour-long screening format, Peppa Meets the Baby, which is due to come out on 30 May and will feature 10 new song-filled episodes as Peppa and George prepare for the arrival of their sister.
Evie is expected to appear on screen in the series from the autumn.
A special set of stamps has also been issued in the UK to mark the 20th anniversary of the popular children's TV series featuring Peppa and her friends.
The stamps include Peppa and George, Suzy Sheep, Danny Dog, Daddy Pig, Mummy Pig, Grandpa, and Granny Pig in the main set, as well as a miniature sheet showing the characters having fun at a party.
Co-created by Neville Astley and Mark Baker, from animation studio Astley Baker Davies, Peppa Pig first aired in 2004 on Channel 5's Milkshake and Nick Jr.
It has since been broadcast in more than 40 languages and is available in over 180 territories.
It was acquired by toy company Hasbro in 2019 as part of its purchase of Entertainment One's brands.
