Full name vs. For Benny
I'm expecting a little girl and love the nickname Benny for her, but to me, it's too nickname-y and she's needs a formal name. I also want something that's inherently more feminine because her middle name will be Shepherd- a family name. Thank you.

I think Benny is darling! First thought was Bernadette, but Bernadette Shepherd is long. Maybe Belinda?
Would love to see Abeni even though the -beni part is pronounced exactly the same as Benny.
Bethany and Bronwyn are options too. Ebony? Benazir?
This is a stretch, but Benny rhymes with Penny, so maybe Penelope? Or a variant of?

Verbena. It doesn't get much more feminine than a beautiful flower, imo.
Benjamine Is the feminine French version of Benjamin.
Beatrice?

^ Benny is a nickname. You're acting like it's being used as a full name. Girls can have - and are allowed - boy nicknames. Not everthing about girls has to be girly, including nicknames. Geez.
