Where did the term "going pee" come from?

According to The Macquarie Dictionary and Cassell's Dictionary of Slang, pee was originally a euphemistic pronunciation of the first letter of the word "p*ss." It started being used sometime during the 20th century.

Maybe someone really needed to pee so they made sounds and one of the sounds sounded like a new word to be made.

well the noise it makes is psssssssssssssssss so that became "piss" which became 'p'-ing (for the tuck-up types, i guess...) which is pronounced "peeing"
