Pennelope

Pennelope has generally been given to girls. The meaning of Pennelope is 'weaver'. It has origins in the myths and legends of Ancient Greece. Penelope is married to Odysseus in Homer's epic, 'The Odyssey'. After a rocky start, when her father threw her into the sea because he wanted a son, she made a good comeback. Ducks called Penelope rescued her from the sea. Her father saw the error of his ways, and she became his favorite child. She married Odysseus and found herself running a kingdom and fending off suitors while he was away at war. The name Pennelope has waxed and waned in popularity for hundreds of years, but thanks to several famous people and several appearances in pop culture, it's making a strong comeback. It's becoming increasingly popular in England, the US, Wales, Italy, Scotland, Australia, and New Zealand.
