Penelope is Odyssey's wife.
Telemachus was, in Homer's Odyssey, the son of Odysseus (Ulysses in the Latin) and Penelope.
There was a measure of disbelief in Penelope. She thought perhaps some man or god meant to trick and/or taunt her. The idea that her husband could be lost for 10 years after a 10 year war, and then still would mean to come back, and would actually arrive back was very unlikely.
The fact that he makes it home, and both him and penelope not leaving each other...even though he sleeps with some goddess
Penelope is not known to have any friends specifically. Some of her servants including the old maid Anticlea could be considered her friend, and her son Telemachus could be considered a friend as well. The suitors could be considered 'friends' although they are not true ones, and are feasting on the estate in pretense of honouring Penelope and giving gifts to her.
One of them was wandering around and caught her going to unravel her weaving and told the others, but in some stories they were waiting up for her to catch her.
These are men who have come from all over Ithaca to seek the hand of Penelope, Queen of Ithaca. Some of them are more serious about the proposition than others.
1. (XXI.85-) When Penelope sets out the axes and challenges the suitors to archery, knowing only Odysseus will be able to shoot it. 2. (XXIII.197-202) Penelope commands Eurycleia to move the unmovable bed (that Odysseus himself built) so that Odysseus (before Penelope believes it to be him) will have sleeping accomodations. Odysseus then opposes that idea, claiming that the bed cannot be moved, convincing Penelope that it truly is Odysseus. Only Odysseus, Penelope, and Eurycleia know about the bed being unmovable.
Cute nicknames for Penelope are like Nelly or Penny.

"The Odyssey" by Homer includes a varied cast of characters with different personalities, including gods, goddesses, monsters, and mortals. Some notable characters include Odysseus, Penelope, Telemachus, Athena, Poseidon, Circe, and the Cyclops Polyphemus. Each character contributes to the twists and turns of Odysseus' epic journey home from the Trojan War.
Some of the kinfolk of the wooers in "The Odyssey" attempted to kill Odysseus upon his return to Ithaca. They plotted to confront him and eliminate him as a threat to their pursuit of Penelope. However, they underestimated Odysseus, who ultimately outsmarted and defeated them. This conflict highlights themes of justice and retribution in the epic.
Penelope's husband was Odysseus. She was the daughter of Icarius and Periboea. Her son was Telemachus.
