OH and are thinking of these names for the bubba, just wondered what you girls thought, we've picked William after my grandad and Penny after my OH mum.
 
I love William, to me Penny is a nickname of Penelope, which is lovely but I'm not a fan of nicknames as first names :)
 
love william it oh nn and his sons mn :) will be our lil boys mn too, not keen on penny
 
my nephew is called william i love it and i think the name penny is cute
 
Oh i hate being honest sometimes as i don't want to hurt or offend, but i really don't like either of them. Obv my opinion though so take no note lol

Penelope would be a fine name with Penny as a nickname. As an adult she could choose.:thumbup:
 
I agree with people above. Penny is lovely but I would call her Penelope so that when she needs a "respectable" name for anything she can choose to use that.

William is lovely!
 
I agree with the above too!
Penny is too much a nickname to me. :)
 
My real name is Penelope, but everyone calls me Penny. I cant even remember anyone calling me Penelope! I quite like it cos its different ;-) x
 
My baby's dad likes William I don't my mum only likes it cos it's my dad's middle name and my dad died my son has his first name George as a middle name if my dad's middle name was Jeffrey Godfrey or Archibald she would like it.
 
Penny and William are lovely names. Penny doesn't feel like a nickname to me - I have known three Penny's (over 3 generations) who were not Penelope's including a boss at a Blue Chip company I used to work for. I think it is a perfectly respectable first name in its own right. I like that it has an old fashioned feel without being too try-hard or too overused. A friend has a 5 year old called Penny who's nickname is Tuppence - how cute is that? 😊
