Now, I'm sure somebody else has chanced upon this. Anyway, tonight, while I was studying vocabulary for English class, I came upon this word Peregrinate, meaning to travel, I think it implies traveling on foot. There's also the noun, peregrine.

What I was wondering was this: does this word have any link with Pippin's full name, Peregrin? They seem awfully similar, in my opinion.
