Re: Penelope
in reply to a message by A
I love Penelope. I've loved Penelope ever since junior high, when we all read "The Odyssey" (or at least an abridged version, since we were 11 years old). And at the time I had never met a real-life Penelope, only read about characters or seen them on TV / in movies. The name seems to be getting more traction now, breaking the Top 30, so I doubt it will stay unique.
One thing I don't like, though, is the apparent inevitability of the nickname Penny, which is the smallest form of currency in the U.S. I wouldn't want to call my daughter, or have her be called, a coin. If I could get the nickname Nell to stick instead, that would be great.
