Penguin for a girl?

[Cereal0ffender]

Or is it more of a boys name?

Pppppppp probably not a good idea.

Penguin??? Lmao I've heard it all now

I think TimTam has a nice ring to it.
Or maybe Hobnob.

This is a joke, right?

We did consider guillemot but worried she might be teased

There is also nice list to be had from bacteria (itself a delightful moniker) and Protozoa (again...).

Eh?

Penguins come in both boy or girl form. Cos they are penguins.

A random word or noun does not a name make.....

.........or it shouldn't.

Pengwin is a fine old Cornish name.

"By Tre Pol and Pen Shall ye know all Cornish men"

Pen means headland or hill

there is dispute about whether the second part of the name 'gwin' derives from the Cornish 'gwin' meaning wine, or, 'gwynn' meaning white

Well, it's equally appropriate for the school room/board room/bedroom...

Penelope Guinevere?

Whitehead is a pretty name for a teenager

Totally chavvy. And unoriginal.

Why not go for something classier, like Koala or Mongoose?

It's a bit of a black and white name, you either love it or hate it.

I'm in Wales, so it's spelt Pengwin here. Place is heaving with them.

Baboom tish

I don't know how anyone can offer an opinion without knowing your surname OP

Not sure of Penguin though for a girl, are you a fan of Gwynnie Paltrow?

Bit old hat.
I like Toucan for a boy.
If you definitely want an Antarctic theme, what about Orca for a girl?

Penguin is a boys name. Pen-Gwen is more popular for girls here.

I know siblings (a trio if you will) Penguin, Samantha and Walrus.

I bet there are Orcas out there

I don't know how anyone can offer an opinion without knowing your surname OP

Yeah. Imagine she would end up with initials like PJ. The poor girl. Or boy.

You could perhaps go more specific with Gentoo or Adelie. Or Chinstrap or Humboldt if baby is a surprise boy.

I think you could go one step further and deconstruct it:

Beak/Beaker

Flipper / Flippa

Feather

Cloaca

I love Orca.
But my favourite is Sardine. Shame I never had a DD.

Oh yes, Sardine! A sister to Sprat and Pilchard.

What about Garibaldi?
