Help[Opinions] Re: Nell
in reply to a message by sprout
I like the idea of Penelope "Nell". It could also work as a nickname for Cornelia.
Nell is nice. The feminine equivalent of Ned, vibe wise - simple and instantly recognisable, but vaguely archaic and fairy-tale like. But unlike Ned, it's also creamy and pleasant and glossy.
Unlike Ned, I think Nell works well enough as a full name. It's certainly more exciting than Eleanor. Nellie is nice too, though I wouldn't but it on a birth certificate.
