My favourite name is [name]Beatrix[/name]! nn [name]Bea[/name] or [name]Trixie[/name] :slight_smile:

I also think it’s the name that fits with [name]Penelope[/name] best and [name]Beatrix[/name] [name]Margaret[/name] sounds gorgeous!

[name]Penelope[/name] and …

[name]Eloise[/name] nn [name]Elsie[/name] - [name]Eloise[/name] is utterly perfect with [name]Penelope[/name], a great match in vintage classic, slightly unusual but still familiar, and it feels just as glamorous and beautiful. The nn [name]Elsie[/name] is adorable (one of my favourites), too, and a great idea. [name]Do[/name] you ever nn [name]Penelope[/name]?
[name]Vera[/name] - this would be nice with [name]Penelope[/name], as they do match in style, but it doesn’t feel perfect with [name]Penelope[/name] the way [name]Eloise[/name] does. Perhaps part of this is the shorter length …
[name]Beatrix[/name] - a great name which I think is perfect with [name]Beatrix[/name]. I might have voted for this one, if it weren’t for the much too insubstantial nn [name]Trixie[/name], in my opinion. [name]How[/name] about [name]Bea[/name] or [name]Bibi[/name]? It’s strange, but I also new a [name]Beatie[/name] who was presumably [name]Beatrix[/name]/ce once.
[name]Petra[/name] - a nice name, but as it shares its first two letters with [name]Penelope[/name], I think your other choices are better.

So, my vote goes to [name]Eloise[/name] nn [name]Elsie[/name]!

Good luck! [name]Auburn[/name]

Without a doubt – [name]Penelope[/name] and [name]Eloise[/name].

These two names are very similar is feel and style to me, but sound unique from one another. These two little girls are clearly sisters, but each is her own person. I think they are a great pair.

I second [name]Elsie[/name] as an adorable nickname, or you could go with Pegge from her middle name. (Unless of course you call [name]Penelope[/name] [name]Penny[/name]?)
And I like the way [name]Eloise[/name] [name]Margaret[/name] sounds.

[name]Beatrix[/name] is too clunky compared to [name]Penelope[/name], [name]Petra[/name] maybe a little too matchy matchy and I’m afraid I just don’t like the name [name]Vera[/name] at all (esp. not with [name]Margaret[/name] as a mn).

I think [name]Beatrix[/name] fits well with [name]Penelope[/name]. [name]Both[/name] names evoke kind of a whimsical feel to me.
