What are people's thoughts on Ruby or Bella with middle name Grace?

Ruby Grace is very nice. 😄

IAmBreakmasterCylinder · 02/03/2018 10:23

I prefer Ruby but both are nice.

Bella is very very popular. Ruby is my preferred choice for that reason.

Ruby, love it!

Both nice but there are half a dozen girls called Ruby in DD's year group. They all have to be called Ruby G or Ruby M etc. Bella is equally nice but a little less popular. Sounds lovely with Grace. Just don't try and combine Ruby and Bella Grin.

Or combine them...Rubella!
(I'll get my coat...)

MyFavouriteChameleon · 02/03/2018 10:28

Ah, snap!

Itscolderoutside · 02/03/2018 10:31

Snap is equally nice but doesn't flow so well with Grace Smile

Bella Grace is lovely.

Bella Grace - lovely

I can never get past the Ruby Murray thing (curry), so Bella for me.

BossWitch · 02/03/2018 11:22

Ruby. Bella is still twilight to me!

Ruby.

SuperBeagle · 03/03/2018 00:20

Bella Grace.

Ruby is much more popular where I am (no. 10 in 2016, as opposed to Bella which was no. 63).

Sophronia · 04/03/2018 04:32

Ruby

Sunflowersforever · 04/03/2018 05:12

Both lovely names, but a lot of them about, as is Grace

Minestheoneinthegreen · 04/03/2018 13:00

I have taught so many off both, although slightly fewer Rubys as Isabella tends to end up as Bella.
No one under a certain age will know who the hell I am talking about, but I hear "Bella" and think "Emberg"...

Minestheoneinthegreen · 04/03/2018 13:00

Of not off!

MikeUniformMike · 04/03/2018 13:50

Yes. Bella Emberg. Search for Blunderwoman, if you're curious.
