Penny(wise)

[sibbys]

Couldn't sleep last night. We had settled on Penny for third and last child but in my sleepless hours I remembered that the disgusting clown from IT is named Pennywise. Now I can't get that out of my head and the name is completely ruined for me.

Can you please help me find a name that has the same feel as Penny. We like Daisy too, but I really found Penny a bit cooler and not so cutesy compared to Daisy.

You don't have to suggest Penelope as Penny would have been the full first name.

I don't know why naming our 3rd child is so hard!

Suki? That was on our list, but sounded a bit rude with our surname, unfortunately. Molly and Suki sound rather good together.

Cute.. we actually discussed Suki. But it's just not a name for us.

My mum is Penny. Or Pen

Penny is my mythical third child's name so I'd say go for it. I don't know the movie.

If not Penny, what about Pippa?

That's great to hear! Do you like your name

My name is Penelope! 😔 I hate it, but thankfully nobody uses it except when being called for Dental, GP and hospital apnts.

I have no objections to Penny at all. Most people comment on how much they like it 😊

Pippa reminds me so much of Peppa Pig!

You should so yourself a favour and change your name to Penny!

OP I'm currently listening to the audiobook of IT so obviously this is fresh in my mind but I honestly wouldn't associate the name Penny with the clown.

My name is Jennifer & Penny is what my siblings call me.

How about Nancy?

If I was going to associate the name Penny with any character it would be Henny Penny! But that is probably because one of our chickens is named Penny.

It's cute though! Keep it in mind with a couple of other options and see what she looks like when she arrives!

Minty
Sassy ( I love that name)
Bonnie
Betty/ Betsy
Dixie
Ginnie

I’ve never seen the film so would never associate it with the clown. It’s a lovely name so use it.

In areas of the west midlands, penny is another word to mean a wee!

"I'm just going for a penny".

It's a bit of an old fashioned phrase, but I do still hear it around.

@zingally Better than poo, I guess!

I actually like Penny and don't think of the clown!

Peggy?

i agree Poppy seems to fit well or how about Kitty?
