[Opinions] Re: Thoughts on Penelope?
I've never been a big fan of Penelope. Plus, Pene is a male body part in Spanish. That makes the name seem vulgar to me.

Funny enough this is the reason you can't name your pokemon Penelope in any pokemon game past generation 5. You also can't name pokemon Violet because the anti-swearing coding picks up another word in French. (Which is ironic since the current gen games are called *Scarlet and Violet*.) This phenomenon is called the Scunthorp Problem, and it's a really fascinating thing to see happen.
