Penelope Brienne?

brightside7 · August 2015

We have chosen Penelope for DD due 9/25 but still struggling to come up with a middle name (other possibilities are June, Belle, Violet or Maeve). And before I get "it looks made up, it looks like you spelled Brianne wrong or how about Brianne?" It's a real name, Celtic, means "strong". What do you think of Penelope Brienne?

I like Penelope June much better

I voted no. I like all your other possibilities better.

Brienne seems too heavy paired with the liveliness of Penelope.

I like your other names though

It's not bad, is just a long name. I agree with PP that Penelope June sounds much better, or any other 1 syllable mn.

MN: May, June, Jane, Jean, Claire

June is our first pick. I just can't seem to settle on it and keep stalking names! It's a sickness..

I think with a long first name, a one-syllable sounds better as middle name. Penelope June or Belle sound better, just in my opinion! Whatever you choose will fit the baby

I would go with a one syllable middle name with Penelope, like, Penelope Rose.

Love Penelope! It is on our short list. Our current middle names include Jane, Rose, Catherine, and Elizabeth. We have a one syllable last name so the longer middle names work better for us, but the shorter middle names aren't out just yet.
