I've always loved Penelope and would use it happily. In fact, when our second daughter was born she had long, bright red hair and looked spectacular. We'd decided on her name, but I said "Shouldn't we call her Penelope instead, after your cousin?" because of the hair! I was instantly reminded that Cousin Penny wasn't DH's favourite relative, by a long shot, so our original choice stood.

I like Penny and Nell as nns; Nellie doesn't appeal and Poppy is appalling.
