What do you think? Is a bit feminine?

I have a Reuben who is 2 this week. I love it, I have only met two so far so it doesn't seem too popular. I do call him Roo or Rubes but no one else does and I don't think it sound feminine anyway. Go for it!

I have a Reuben and he gets called Roo by me. To everyone else he is Reuben.

It's a lovely name!

Gorgeous.

Lovely name, I also have a Reuben. He's called Roo by DH and myself!

I would just like to point out that you will have to get used to some people in life spelling it wrong...At nursery we've had 'Rueben' and I've had to correct the staff. If this doesn't bother you too much, then go for it OP.

I don't get too worked up about the misspelling as I know it could have easily been done with another name that isn't as common too.

Love it. Gorgeous name. Grin
