You are good at advice :)

Albania, actually.

I loved Penny from Inspector Gadget!

That's very pretty. I know one other Ilona. My cousin married a wonderful girl named Ilona, which is apparently a fairly common name in her country.

I understand your pain with the whole naming tradition thing. I'm assuming if he's Greek, then the full name is Emmanuel? How do you feel about that, because, I always liked Emmanuel, but could never quite get around to Manny.

Can I call her Tory?

Precisely!

Just start calling the other one Liz.

Huh... never knew that. Will keep it in mind.

That's so neat thank you!

I know... it's such a great name. But every time I hear it, I only think of her. I went until i was 24 without having that horrible back-stabby girl in my life. She is not to be forgiven. On top of it, she's like a horrible ex boyfriend... I randomly get texts from her nearly 6 years later, telling me that she misses…

I've known one Roxanne in my entire life and she's a super successful and awesome NYC chef... it's got good vibes :)

I should have specified... Sophia and James are not runnable names. God, I wish they were. But I do know that from now on, I'm keeping my mouth shut like a steel trap when it comes to the tiny list I have left.

That, I can deal with... I just don't want to name them something that's in the top 3 if I can avoid it.

They would be the best of friends.

See, now... growing up Greek... everyone has the same name. You're all named after your grandparents so out of, let's say like, 14 cousins... there's prob 3 names, tops. I was used to that... but I'm lucky bc I'm the youngest by A LOT. So, both my parents have grandkids named after them. They're done. They're happy. I…

And their first day of school will be miserable forever and they'll all be able to relate about it and laugh and laugh and laugh...

Calliope is really beautiful too. I grew up with both of those names, but Penelope has a special place in my heart.

Just run with it. You can make new friends.

We both really like Finn.
