Nicknames for Penelope?

Penny
Nell/Nellie

Is Poppy a nickname too?

Are there any other acceptable nicknames?

We are TTC, and it's a tie between Evangeline & Penelope if the next one is a girl. DH prefers the nickname Eva to the nn's Penny or Nellie. It might be the nn that decides this one.

Thanks for your imput!

Penny
Pen
Nell
Nellie
Ellie
Elle
Lope
Lopie
Lola

are the only ones I can think of. IMO, Poppy is a perfectly fine nn for Penelope, too.

I like Nell, Nellie and Ellie best for Penelope. Poppy is definitely a 'maybe'. :) Evangeline is a little over-the-top for a fn, imo. But many think that about Penelope, too. :b Good luck!

Well, of course, assuming we had a girl, and assuming we went with Evangeline, we would use Eve, Evie, & Eva as nn's.

I don't know all the nns for Penelope, but to me it can be anmything you like of course, as long as it's somewhat based on the name Penelope.

I like the name Penelope

I don't really like Penny (it's money!)
possible nns:
Nell/Nelly/Nelli/Nellie
Elly/Elli/Ellie
Poppy works too imo
Nello
Pelly
Lope
Pen

also nns there are a bit of a stretch are fine too.

I think Evangeline is nice too. I like the nn Evie best, Eva is also nice.
