Penelope was our runner-up girl's name. I couldn't quite get my husband on board, and our oldest son didn't like the "pee" sound in
Penelope & thought it had teasing potential. And I'm not crazy about any of the nicknames, except maybe
Lola (which is a stretch). I still think it's a fabulous name & I love it with
Beatrice (and prefer it to
Beatrice). We were thinking about using
Penelope Antoinette or
Penelope Charlotte.
