Ruby!!

LadyWithLapdog · 06/05/2018 23:28

"Ruby has already peaked and is on the way down."

I thought that was the OP updating us mid-labour :)

VileyRose · 06/05/2018 10:11

Ruby has already peaked and is on the way down. I know more Lucy's x

Pressuredrip · 06/05/2018 09:18

congrats! all are lovely names, but 'Ruby' is becoming more popular so chances are there will be a lot of other Rubys around if you're alright with that?

Wrong. Whilst it is popular at 23 in the charts, it peaked in 2007 and has been going down in popularity since.

I'd say Lucy. It's the most timeless one.

Coey2016 · 06/05/2018 09:14

Lucy

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 06/05/2018 08:45

What did you name her OP ?

BakedBeans47 · 05/05/2018 13:06

Lucy has always been my favourite girls name...I only have boys though

Inkspellme · 05/05/2018 07:48

Lucy or Ruby are both beautiful. I don’t like Amy - to me it sounds like a child’s name but doesn’t fit in an adult in my head.

LuluMarie · 05/05/2018 07:42

I love Ruby but do enjoy Lucie myself:)

LadyWithLapdog · 05/05/2018 07:40

Ruby

marmitecrumpets · 05/05/2018 07:33

Ruby

CharlieBoo · 05/05/2018 07:31

Lucy!!! I am one so I’m biased lol.. good luck

Theclockstruck2 · 05/05/2018 07:26

Lucy!

disappearingninepatch · 04/05/2018 21:20

Lucy or Amy (my MIL's name). Ruby is lovely too but is much more popular than the other two.

I love Joel. Smile

DramaAlpaca · 04/05/2018 21:13

I like them all but would choose Lucy myself.

Mollie85 · 04/05/2018 20:43

Lucy! Timeless Wink

Ruby would be second (sassy)

A long way down the list would be Amy. It sounds extremely dated to my 37 year old ears...

...And I say that as an “extremely dated” K name (unless you live in Scotland...) Wink

But like a PP says - when you see her, she may well let you know.
Good luck op Grin
