Alas, Jennie, you are guilty of cod etymology (see what I did there? ;-) ). Wiki's concise explanation runs thus, "The city's nickname Pompey is thought to have derived from the log entry of Portsmouth Point, contracted to "Po'm.P." as ships entered the harbour. Navigational charts use the contraction."
