I absolutely love Penelope. I don't mind Penny as a nickname. My favorite combos are with Iris as a first or middle name. I think it fits well with your other favorites.

I adore it. Penelope Antoinette is still in my Top 5 Girls Names, but alas, we are not having any more babies. We did not use it for our daughter because I honestly didn't care for the nickname Penny and our (then 7 year old) didn't like the strong "pee" sound at the end of the name- he thought it had teasing potential. Still, overal, fabulous name and still a personal favorite.

I like Penelope because it has spunk. Penny is my favorite NN, by far.

Yes, I think it would fit in just fine with the others.

I love Penelope. I had Penelope Claire as my top name for quite a while, but as sometimes happens I think I just said it too many times and now I don't want to use it so much. I love Penny, and also Pipi. I love the longer P names like this as well as Patricia, Persephone, Perpetua, Phillipa.

I love Penelope, but dislike all nicknames (apart from maybe Poppy, but that's a stretch).

I'm starting to like it more than I used to. It's a little nerdy cute. I think of Persephone as well when I think of Penelope.

---

I think it goes great with everything by Ruby. Penelope Annora or Penelope Blythe are lovely unusual combos.

---

I'd use the nickname Nell over Penny, but I'm not particularly opposed to Penny.

I think Penelope is beautiful! I love the movie Penelope and I think Penny is a adorable nickname. Penelope Blythe would be lovely.

Love It

---

It's been on my PNL for ages. I like Pen/Penny or Nell/Nelly best as a nickname.

---

And I think it fits very well with your other favorites - Penelope Blythe is a great combo all in itself!

Penelope is darling. Known, but not overly used. And it's so rare to see a girl's name beginning with a "p."

---

My favorite nn for Penelope would be Nell.

Love it! It's my niece's name (well, she's my best friend's daughter). She's 6 months old.

I love Penelope! My favorite combo is Penelope June. I love Penny for a nickname, but Nel could be cute, too. I think it sounds fine with your other names.

I've loved Penelope for a while now, for the same reasons as you.

---

My favourite nicknames are Penny, Poppy and Nell.

---

It goes very well with your other favourites. (I love Ruby and Rose too!)

I think it's fun. It's fun to say, it looks fun, it's upbeat, friendly, and bright orange. My favorite nn for it used to be Nell, but that has such a different feel from Penelope alone that now my favorite nn is Penny. Totally cute.

---

The only combo I've ever made that I really love with it is Penelope Jane. I think the feel and color of Jane alongside it is just awesome.

---

I think it fits right in with your other favorite names. Penelope would be the more quirky one of the group.

It's a nice name and fits well with your other favourites. One of my friends has two daughters named Eva and Penelope.

---

The obvious nn is Penny, can't think of others, really.

edit: Typo

---

different definitely. I think it could be cute esp using the nn Penny. I think Penelope Rose goes nice and maybe Penelope Elisabeth. I don't hate it at all. nice :)
