DH has finally agreed to Penelope for possible future DD, which I love, with nn Nell!!

Any thoughts, or possible middle names...?! Surname begins with 'O' and is 2 syllables! Thanks!

I like Penelope Jane!

Very popular middle name amongst my friends though, which puts me off a little bit...!

Would Jean or Joan be an alternative to Jane for you? Or maybe the French Jeanne?

If you want a laugh at some truly silly names take a look at this:

I love the name Penelope by the way! Beautiful, classic and has a story behind it.

I love Penelope, so glad you will be using it! How will you stop people calling her Penny? I have an Isabella, with nn Bella..... but now she's at secondary school I can't control the hoards of people who call her Izzy!
