Weaver
Originally a diminutive of Penelope, Penny is derived from the Greek word 'pēnē', referring to a bobbin or thread. It is famously associated with the faithful wife of Odysseus in Greek mythology, who spent years weaving. Today, it is frequently used as a standalone name with a cheerful, mid-century charm.
