I love it!

AntonsMumsTeeth · 07/08/2019 21:14

Lovely!

I love this name. It's DD's middle name as DP wasn't keen.

I prefer it to her first name it's beautiful

Usherusherusher · 07/08/2019 22:19

I love it

NationMcKinley · 07/08/2019 22:19

Love it.

pennypineapple · 07/08/2019 22:20

I love it and love Penny as a nickname too. Unfortunately DH vetoed

Tillygetsit · 07/08/2019 22:49

Girl at school spoilt it for me but objectively it's nice.

DramaAlpaca · 07/08/2019 22:49

I love it.

I like Nell as a diminutive rather than Penny.

Astronica · 08/08/2019 04:29

Lovely. And I like that it has many nickname options besides Penny.

99bb · 08/08/2019 06:55

Love it. DH vetoed as he knew one.

Peachbubble · 08/08/2019 07:58

Like Penelope, don't like Penny, and all the Penelopes I know, go by Penny.

Pinkout · 08/08/2019 15:58

Love it, wanted to call my DD it but chose something else in the end. Lovely name.

daisypond · 08/08/2019 16:00

Yes, it’s lovely. Not Penny as a short form, though.

Witchinghour1 · 08/08/2019 19:09

I’ve got one:) 5 and nn Penny

riotlady · 08/08/2019 19:11

I love it and Penny is such a cute nn

MeMeMeYou · 08/08/2019 19:15

I like penny, not so keen on the full name, but it’s nicein that it’s not overused
