[Opinions] Re: Penelope
I really hate it. I think it was used as a faux princess name on the Simpsons, and the only imagery I get from it now pink, sparkly, overly girly, and sickly sweet, which is an image I personally don't like in a name. It sounds like the name of a very stuck up, spoiled, brat who always wants (and gets) her way. She pushes other people/peers around then acts perfect around her parents/authority figures (kind of like Angelica from the Rugrats). I really dislike the sound too, it's so unappealing! I don't like Nel, and the ope bit doesn't help. I actually quite like Calliope, so I think it's just Penelope as a whole. I feel like I should like it, and there are real life Penelope's who aren't anything like the image I get from it, but I haven't been swayed yet. I don't see the appeal.
