Oh well that works too, people. In American often northern refer to pizza as a pizza pie because it's round I guess I never really knew why but they do it anyway

Pizza means pie in Italian. Or whatever country it came from, I'm sure it was Italy. That means when people say pizza pie, they're saying 'pie pie'.

They just call it pie in Italy I'm pretty sure, they invented it, they can call in whatever

APPARENTLY : It's because in Italy, Pizza means pie. So that's why when you say Pizza Pie it's repetitive so no one really says, "Pizza Pie" anymore, just pizza. That's just what I heard but I'm not sure :s

No, in Italian, pizza doesn't mean pie. It means pizza. It seems to me that it's called 'pie' mostly around New York. In the rest of the world, pie means pie. In Italy, pizza is a form of bread and the bread is the most important part. Not the topping. In Italian, pies are usually called 'torta', same as cake. Look up 'torta pasqualina', 'torta di patate', 'torta di mele', 'torta di limone' for examples of how many things 'torta' can mean.
