What do you think of these names?

In all honesty what do you think of these names?
Penelope and Oaklynn for a girl?

Penelope is fine, but will get shortened. Pen. Penny, Nell are all fine,
Oaklynn is awful.

Penelope is nice.

Oaklynn is very much not to my taste

Love Penelope and it’s shortened versions.

I don’t like Oaklynn.

Yes to Penelope.
Big no from me for Oaklynn.

No to Oaklynn. Penelope is ok.

I’m not a lover of middle names usually ,but Penelope Oaklynn has a nice sound, Oaklynn on its own however, no

I like Penelope, with nickname Penny or Nell.

I'm not keen on Oaklynn - how about Ashlynn or Caitlin?

Penelope is lovely, I love Penny & Nell as nn options.

not a fan of Oaklynn

What do you not like about Oaklynn?

It's not a name? 🤷🏻‍♀️ Penelope is lovely by the way.

Just not my style . It's your baby though, so if you love it, you should definitely use it

Oaklynn lives in a trailer with her sisters Brandilynn and Britneylynn.

This!

I don't particularly like the sound and it looks made up. I wouldn't even like it as a house name.

Penelope I’m indifferent to.

Oaklynn is a big no from me!

I would totally agree with all these comments. Thank you for justifying what I have been saying repeatedly! And can I just ask if Oaklynn is a Welsh name? 😳

Oaklynn (never heard of it) Wouldn’t be a Welsh name spelt like that. There is no ‘k’ in the Welsh alphabet for a start.

Quote from t'internet "a modern created name".

I am welsh, Oaklynn is definitely not

Oaklynn just sounds like a made up name by someone trying to be unique. Personally I prefer established names but if you actually want a unique name it's fine. I like the nature reference and it's easy to say.

I can't decide whether I hate or pity those who dismiss names because someone who lives in a trailer might have it. Disliking a name is one thing. Disparaging social groups you think inferior is unnecessary.

Definitely not a name from the Welsh language. Oak is Derw in Welsh. Lyn might be from glyn or llyn, but the nn isn't welsh.

Oaklynn sounds like the name of a suburban bungalow.

Oaklynn isn’t a name for a human. Awful!

I know a little Penny whose name is really Penny, not Penelope, and an over-40 Penelope whose name has never, ever been shortened. Lovely name!

Penelope is fine, I'm not a massive fan but objectively it's a nice enough name.

Oaklynn on the other hand is not a nice name. It sounds like a brand of wardrobe to me.

Oaklynn is a trailer trash name.

Penelope is nice and quite popular these days.
