Re: Penrose
in reply to a message by RDNZL
It could be a cool middle name for a boy (e.g. if it was a family name), but I wouldn't use it as a first name. I like it as a guilty pleasure first name for a girl. Taking the "pen-" part to mean "chief, top" from ancient Welsh/British instead of from "pen-" from Latin for "almost", I like to think of the meaning as the top/leading rose, i.e. the supreme rose. It's a rather cheesy but beautiful feminine meaning. I view Penny and Rose as feminine. But Pen could be either.
