Singularizing forcing of "small" cardinality? Can there be a large cardinal $\kappa$ and a forcing of size $\kappa$ that makes $\kappa$ a singular cardinal?  The motivation is that the standard Prikry forcing does not have a dense set of size $\kappa$.
Edit:
In response to some attempts at a positive answer, let me explain something that does not work.  If $\mathbb{P}$ is the Prikry forcing and $\mathbb{Q}$ is something like $Coll(\kappa,2^\kappa)$, one may expect under suitable indestructibility hypotheses, $\mathbb{P}$ works in $V^\mathbb{Q}$.  But this never works.  
The following lemma is based on an exercise in Kunen's book: Suppose $\kappa$ is a singular cardinal and $\mathbb{R} = \{ f : f$ is a partial function from $\kappa$ to $2$ with domain bounded below $\kappa \}$, ordered by extension.  Then $\mathbb{R}$ collapses $\kappa$ to $cf(\kappa)$.
Proof: Suppose for simplicity $cf(\kappa) = \omega$, and let $\langle \kappa_n : n \in \omega \rangle$ be an increasing cofinal sequence.  If $G \subseteq \mathbb{R}$ is generic, define in $V[G]$ the function $f : \omega \to \kappa$ by $f(n) = \beta$ where $\beta < \kappa_n$ and for some $\delta$, the ordinal $\kappa_n \cdot \delta + \beta$ is the $\kappa_n$-th element of $\{ \alpha : \bigcup G(\alpha) = 1 \}$.  A simple density argument shows that $f$ is surjective.
Now let $\kappa$ be our large cardinal.  It follows from a general folklore fact that there is a dense embedding $e : Add(\kappa,1) \times Coll(\kappa,2^\kappa) \to Coll(\kappa,2^\kappa)$.  After forcing with $\mathbb{P}$, the $Add(\kappa,1)$ of the ground model becomes the forcing with bounded functions from the lemma, and the map $e$ is still a dense embedding.  So if $G \times H$ is $\mathbb{P} \times \mathbb{Q}$-generic, then by the lemma, $\kappa$ is collapsed to $\omega$.  Therefore in $V^\mathbb{Q}$, $\mathbb{P}$ collapses $\kappa$ to $\omega$.
I suspect that if a positive answer is possible, the forcing must be significantly different from the standard Prikry forcing or some combination of it with simple forcings.
 A: What about the following. Let $V$ be a model of GCH and let $\kappa$ be Laver-prepared. 
Force with $P\oplus Q$ where $P$ is the Prikry forcing making $\mathrm{cf}(\kappa)=\omega$ and 
$Q=\mathrm{Coll}(\kappa,\kappa^+)$. Notice that $P\oplus Q$ has the Prikry property: 
if $\varphi$ is a sentence in the forcing language $((s,A),q)\in P\oplus Q$, then let $\psi$ be: 
there is $q'\leq q$ such that $q'$ forces $\varphi$ and apply the Prikry property to $\psi$. 
This implies that $P\oplus Q$ does not add new elements to $V_\kappa$. Clearly, $P\oplus Q$ 
changes the cofinality of $\kappa$ to $\omega$ ($P$ already does). As $P\oplus Q=Q\oplus P$, 
$V^Q$ is as required. (shame on me to write this as an answer, only it was too long for a comment.) 
A: It is consistent that the answer is no:
Let $V=L[U],$ where $U$ is a normal measure on a measurable cardinal $\kappa.$ First note that we can apply Prikry forcing over $V$ to change the cofinality of $\kappa$ to $\omega.$ 
Now we show that there is no forcing of size $\kappa$ changing the cofinality of $\kappa.$ Suppose not. Let $P$ be such a forcing notion and let $G$ be $P-$generic over $V$. By Dodd-Jensen covering theorem for $L[U],$ there exists an $\omega-$sequence $C\in V[G]$ cofinal in $\kappa$ which is a Prikry sequence
for the classical Prikry forcing $P_U$ in $V$ and $V[G]$ is covered by $V[C]$. Then $V[C]\subset V[G],$ and we have $P_U$ is a projection of $P$, so $P$ has size $>\kappa.$ 
Remark. In fact the above proof shows that if there is such a forcing notion, then $0^\dagger$ exists.
A: The answer to your question is no. We have the following theorem.

Theorem. Suppose $\kappa$ is a regular uncountable cardinal and $|P|=\kappa.$ Then $\Vdash_P cf(\kappa)=|\kappa|.$ 

Proof. Let $\tau$ be a name of an unbounded subset of $\kappa.$ We show there is $f\in V, f:\kappa\to\kappa$ such that $\Vdash_P f''[\tau]=\kappa.$ The result will follow immediately.
Let $(p_i: i<\kappa)$ enumerate $P$. Define by induction, for each pair $(i, j)\in \kappa\times \kappa$ an ordinal $\alpha_{ij}<\kappa$ and a condition $q_{ij}$ such that:
(1) $(i', j') < (i,j) \implies \alpha_{i'j'} < \alpha_{ij},$ (where $<$ denote any well ordering of $\kappa\times\kappa$ of order type $\kappa,$ say like Godel ordering)
(2) $q_{ij}\leq p_i$ and $q_{ij}\Vdash \alpha_{ij}\in \tau.$
Then $f$ defined by $f(\alpha_{ij})=j$ is as required as can be proved easily.
