our name choices- thoughts?

They're all family names. We will probably use full name and nn equally, like we do with our daughter (elisabeth nn ellie)

penelope sarah
(nickname nell or pippi)

howard vance
(probably go by howie a bit)

I like them! I think Opie is a cute nn for Penelope too!

WashingtonQueen

I love Penelope! My favorite NN for it is Penny.

I like Howard, I don't hear it a lot. 

TripMomma

Your girl name is cute...Penelope is growing on me, I like the nn Poppy a lot more than Pippi though.

Howard/Howie is not my style...but nothing wrong with it at all.

Both very nice. I prefer Poppy, Penny, or Pippa over Nell or Pippi though.

allardr

Love Penelope, and I actually do like your boys name, Howard itself is eh to me but I love the sound of it with Vance.

Great names!

queenbone

I really like Howard/Howie! DH said no though because of the creepy guy on Big Bang Theory. I think it is a great name to really grow with a person.

Penelope is very pretty. Good choices.

Scarlett&Gatsby

Both are really nice. Love Penelope and Howard!

Love the girl name!

I am not a fan of Howard. It reminds me of an old man. I am sorry
