Ruby Louise and Joe Jacob

[Bellaholland]

After going through a lot if names and asking advice on many we have finally agreed on Ruby Louise or if a boy Joe Jacob. I know Ruby is popular but we are in holland and it's not here at all (30 in 2011). Louise is my middle name, Jacob was my husbands grandad. I don't like Joseph as it becomes yo seph here! My husband wanted Joey but I would rather have Joe and call him Joey when little. We have a daughter Pippi (Pip) Marie.

Any comments?

I like both of them, good choices. Personally I would put Joseph on the b/c but always use Joe just because I think it's good to have the option if he wants it later in life.
When are you due? Good luck

Yeah good point on Joseph and actually to my surprise there were only 15 boys named Joseph in holland in 2011! They also spell it Jozef... Kind if like that!
