How do you pronounce Ptolemy? Is the P silent?

Yep, the P is silent. It's pronounced 'TAHL-ah-mee', basically.

Josephine

cause that's my name and I love it but it'd be kind of pig-headed to use it.

Caoimhe. I absolutely love the name (it's pronounced Keeva) but I think the poor kid would go through hell having to spell it and I refuse to spell it a non-traditional way. I may use it for a middle name though.

I also love Kelly for a boy but I'm not sure if he'd get through primary school with a girl's name.

Kelly used to be exclusively a boys' name. Funny how that works...

I don't have too many guilty pleasure names. Almost every name I like, I'm willing to use it.

I also really like Penny and Poppy. I would use Penelope with Penny as a nickname.

Is Poppy too ridiculous as a stand alone name??


PS. I wouldn't use both Penny and Poppy as a sibset. One or the other.
