Just found out we're having a girl!! Very excited, but also shocked as would have bet my right eye it was a boy. Pah so much for mothering instinct

Ruby is the one and only girls name we have agreed on like at the moment. My only real worry is that is much too popular currently. Opionions please!

Is the name for my Roomba. So yes I love Ruby!

Wow that was quick!
Thanks for the opinions.
I'm a nicu nurse and haven't seen too many around to be honest, only 2 or 3 in as many years, but I always hear of babies called Ruby IYKWIM?!
I love the name, but don't want her to be one of 3 in a playgroup/ class
