Actually diamond and sapphire were popular in the early 1900's up til the end of the 20's.
Personally I'd rather banana than strawberry especially with ice cream .

Well, who decided that Cherry, Olive and Clementine were legitimate names but not Strawberry, Mango or Nectarine? (likewise - Ruby, Pearl and Amber but not Diamond or Sapphire.)

It may yet turn out to be a pet name - like 'Bean', 'Peanut' or 'Currant' used for foetuses and babies before names have been decided.
