yes, i hear they can be very small. the one i got was about 20cm or so in diameter though. i didn't try it raw ; maybe that is better with the small ones. i think the small ones you can eat the skin (?), i didn't eat it on the one i got.

I have never heard of pickled pumpkin!!! I think you (collectively) are using "pumpkin" as a pretty generic term for a great deal of different squash. for instance, the GIANT ones that are even sold cut up here are Hubbard squash

hm, i don't know... to me "potiron" or "citrouille" is pretty specific, although there can be 2 kinds of potiron that i know of : the relatively large orange ones which usually you buy only a portion of, and the small green ones (which on second look i don't think are the acorn squash, it looks like those have a pointy end, potiron have flat / hollowed top and bottom). the generic terme here would be "courge".
