Dalam mitologi, Penelope dikenal karena kesetiaannya kepada Odysseus, meskipun mendapat perhatian dari lebih dari seratus pelamar selama kepergian suaminya, sekaligus kecerdasannya dalam merancang berbagai siasat untuk menolak mereka. Dalam salah satu sumber, nama asli Penelope adalah Ameirake, Arnakia[4] atau Arnaia.[5] Ia dianggap menonjol baik dalam kecantikan maupun kecerdasan dibandingkan orang-orang sezamannya, dan begitu berbudi sehingga dikatakan ia melampaui sepupunya Helena dalam keindahan kebajikannya.[6]
