We are TTC#2. I didn't decide Penelope's name until more towards the end of the pregnancy, but we had a few names in mind the whole time.
DH has no input to offer except to say "no" to everything I suggest so most likely I will choose a few names and one will grow on him (just how he is). DD1 is Penelope Jane.
I like:
Luca
Gabriel
Jonah
Ada
Beatrice
Hazel
Cecilia
Nora
What would YOU name Penelope's sibling?
ETA: Not meaning to say you have to choose from the names I like. ![]()
Re: What would YOU name Penelope's sibling?
From your names I like Gabriel, Ada and Cecilia. I prefer Lucas over Luca.

I can't say I'm a fan of any of your names. Cecilia is decent.
But, please, anything but Hazel! Dear god, that's like the worst name ever. I know everyone has different tastes in names but for the life of me, I can't understand that one.

I like Jonah of the boy choices. I like Beatrice, Hazel, and Nora of the girl choices.
OMG! I love Penelope Jane. That's one of my favorite combo's. Unfortunately, DH doesn't like it
Of the names that you have I love Nora. Or maybe Eleanor with the nn Nora.
I like all of them except Cecilia. In order of preference:
Boys 1. Gabriel 2. Luca 3. Jonah
Girls 1. Nora 2. Beatrice 3. Hazel 4. Ada 5. Cecilia

I think that Jonah goes really well with Penelope. I think an old fashioned name goes well with another old fashioned name.
this website: Sibling Generator has a great sibling name generator.
I like: Abigail, Lillian, Violet for girls.
Parker, Jasper, Logan, and Jonah for boys.

Wow, that's one of the oddest groupings of sibling names I've ever seen. They really didn't care how one sounded with the other!
I am in the same situation, husband offers no advice except to say no. I actually like the name Penelope for #2 and my son's name is Enzo.
I like all of your boy names! I would probably go with Jonah, though- seems like the best fit with Penelope.
I like all your girl names except for Beatrice. Cecilia is just okay, though. I would probably go with Hazel... I adore Hazel!
These are great suggestions. I also love Gwendolyn. I, personally, like syllable counts to remain the same if you have two girls.
I think of Penelope as a 19th century name, so I would look through the 19th century SS index.
like jonah and hazel. but would also add Jeremiah and Piper (my boss just named her girl Piper, thought it was cute).
great names so far!
Girls: Matilda, Beatrice, Josephine,Madeline
Boys: Theodore, Simon, Oliver, Samuel
