Penny or Pennie

[Psammead]

As the nickname for Penelope? Just wondering in an idle way which spelling works better.

Pennie looks wrong.

it's Penny

Penny

Penny definitely!

Penny

Penny as nn, Penelope for best. :o

Penny

MT

Penny - I love it.

Penny.

Penny. Pennie is Penny spelt wrong.

Call her pennie and some wag at school will always add an 's'

Then kids will laugh and call her penis

(had a similarly amendable name and kids can be horrible)

Pennie is so contrived. Call her Penny. It will probably be shortened to Pen.

Penny.

Penny.

If you use Pennie you'll be forever correcting people.

Penny.

Penny.

What everyone else said

Haha. It's unanimous then! Penny is correct. Pennie looks like you can't spell.

With a y (from experience)

Some wag will always add the s, but at least when ignorant fuckers people can't spell it, you can just say "You know, like money" and make them look stupid er :o

Ok :)

I always thought it was Penny, but had a last minute 4am crisis of confidence and wondered if I was being stupid and it was obviously Pennie

My aunt shortens it as Peni.

It never occurred to me until I was in my 30s that it was easily turned into penis - I was just so used to thinking of it as peni in relation to her. And my nickname at more than one school as bestowed by others was the walking dictionary so not usually bad at spotting things like that!
