Ruby or Matilda?
& any reason why you prefer one to the other.

I like both. I have a Ruby in my life, she's a teenager now, but was just a baby when I met her, I didn't really like the name, but she made it an absolutely perfect name!

my friend has a Matilda , Tilly & a Mumsnetter who used to post 'in the old days' has an absolutely gorgeous Matilda!

I don't think you can go wrong with either!!

Ruby, I've never known one who wasn't lovely.

Matilda. Classic name and I like the nickname Tilda.
Ruby is ok.
