We are having Spanakopita tomorrow with our Turkey and we call it Spanakopita because it has lots of fresh Spinach mixed with Feta cheese wich is added for its salty taste that goat cheese lacks.

By definition, Spanakopita is Spinach Pie. It is also referred to as Spanakotyropita, which by definition is Spinach-Cheese Pie because the two main ingredients are SPINACH, and cheese. Not any goat cheese, but FETA Cheese which can be made with goat milk or cow's milk.
The Greeks also have a cheese pie, called TYROPITA. Cheese in Greek is TYRI. The Greek viewers, all know this.
This recipe is a form of TYROPITA. Not, though, a traditional Greek recipe. We don't put rosemary or pinenuts, however this combination sounds delicious and I will definately try it. Just, PLEASE, don't call it SPANAKOPITA.

I agree with previous rating, this should be called a "version" of tiropita, vice spanakopita. This isn't anything like the Greek recipe for either spanakopita or tiropita.

Traditional Greek spanikopita contains spinich along with the other ingredients. If you want to make a Greek cheese pie which the recipy tends to lean toward you should call it a Tiropita.

the rosemary is way too overpowering for this delicate treat. I would omit this.
