Penny

Traditionally of English origin, the meaning of Penny is 'weaver'. This name is usually preferred for girls. Spiritually, the name represents new beginnings, the start of a new chapter, and a fresh start. A short form of Penelope, this name is derived from an expression meaning 'duck'. Also, the name Penny derives from the coin. Until the early 14th century, the penny was the only form of coinage in England and so was considered to be highly valuable. In Greek, the name is derived from the name 'pene', meaning 'weft'. A fictional character in the series 'The Big Bang Theory' is called Penny Hofstadter and played by Kaley Cuoco.

Lucky

Penny lucky number is 2.

Within numerology, the 2 vibration assumes the role of the mediator, creating harmony by bringing together dissonant forces through compassion, empathy, and kindness. 2 is linked to psychic abilities and intuition, and if this number appears as a Life Path or Destiny Number, the individual will be astute to subtle energy shifts and emotional nuances. Because 2 is so sensitive, it is very conflict-averse, and can end up feeling under-appreciated or unacknowledged. 2 must avoid seeking external validation and, instead, realize that perfect equilibrium needed already exists within.
