Something one syllable. I'm a Penelope and while I don't like my middle name it does go with it. So e.g. Anne, Jane, Clare.

Sorry...I do like Eloise but not the other options. Clearly not with it today 😂

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 16/04/2023 21:59

If You're looking for them to have them same style or names. Halle and Penelope are worlds apart.
Eloise. Is quite pretty and has a similar vibe. However they both have the potential for the nn Elle or Ellie.
Lily is best with Penelope.

Other suggestions. Penelope and
Florence.
Madeleine.
Meredith.
Scarlett.
Charlotte
Beatrice.
Claudia.
Jessica.
Miriam.
Miranda.
Cynthia.
Alexandra.
Georgina
Rosanna.
Victoria.
Abigail.
Anastasia.
Felicity.

I don't like any of your options, but I love Penelope

@shakeitoffsis love these but they are both the names of my two friends children 🤣

every good name I think of I seem to know someone with it.

Mabel or Matilda

Elaine? Then you could have Penny & Laine as nicknames 😄

But seriously I'm not keen on your choices to go with Penelope. Hallie sounds like a nickname, especially next to such a beautiful and substantial name as Penelope. Lily adds too many Ls to the whole situation and it's pretty common. Eloise is just boring to my ears.

I would expect something like Penelope &
Meredith
Jemima
Athena
Camilla
Josephine
Helena
Olive
Clementine
Astrid
