I LOVE the name Ruby and am considering it for DC2 if they are a girl (find out soon)! BUT popularity is off putting although it no 20 in Scotland so less popular than in England. I used to also love Scarlet but have been put off by the name being in soaps! Any suggestions fo similar names please? Thanks

Do you want another name that means "red"? Robin, Rowan
Or another name that is like a gemstone? Beryl, Topaz
Or both together - Coral, Garnet

Pearl is lovely.

Pearl is not so lovely in Scotland. Scottish accents have a much harder R sound so it can end up being pronounced "Peril".
