Indie is not an attractive 'name' at all. Doesn't flow well, not feminine, sounds a bit silly. India if you must.

But Ruby is nice.

Joeybee · 30/09/2018 06:33

Indigo and then you can shorten it to Indie.

Peachbubble · 30/09/2018 08:16

Prefer India, with nn Indie

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 30/09/2018 09:27

Ruby, love it !

Sungura · 30/09/2018 09:32

Ruby.

lljkk · 30/09/2018 09:39

India > Ruby > Indigo (with Indie as nn)

SequinsOnEverything · 30/09/2018 09:50

Indie. I don't know why, but to me Indigo is a boys name. I do like Ruby as well, although as a pp said, I do picture a little girl with dark hair for Ruby.

TheVanguardSix · 30/09/2018 09:51

Ruby

butlerswharf · 30/09/2018 09:54

Ruby. By a long long way.

rhubarbfool · 30/09/2018 09:59

Congratulations! Ruby or India.

Laac · 30/09/2018 13:31

I love Ruby but my husband can't say his "Rs" so I can't use it. Wooby doesn't have the same ring to it.

Ozgirl01 · 30/09/2018 13:51

I prefer Ruby, but Indigo nn Indie would be sweet too.

ferrier · 30/09/2018 13:53

Indigo is a boy's name round here.

FogCutter · 30/09/2018 14:02

Ruby is quite popular here if that bothers you?

I like indie

TatianaLarina · 30/09/2018 14:02

Ruby is a stripper name along with Pearl and Opal.

Very low rent trying to sound glam.

Mollie85 · 30/09/2018 14:16

Ruby.

“Stripper name”
“Low Rent” Hmm ODFOD

Bridgetwithoutthejones · 30/09/2018 14:17

Stripper name? In what world?

Bridgetwithoutthejones · 30/09/2018 14:17

It’s hardly Jazzabelle

TatianaLarina · 30/09/2018 14:27

I could link you to all all the Rubys on an escort site if you like, but I’m not sure MN would appreciate it.

tatim · 30/09/2018 14:39

Wouldn't consider Ruby a stripper name at all. Confused

Bridgetwithoutthejones · 30/09/2018 19:08

I’m now questioning why you visit said escort site tatiana

TheCag · 30/09/2018 19:34

I love Indie, I know an Indianna and they use Indie as her nickname.

Dinosaursdontgrowontrees · 30/09/2018 19:37

I would go for Indigo Ruby with nickname Indie. Beautiful!

historygeek12 · 30/09/2018 19:38

Indie but I’m biased as I have an Indianna ! Congratulations xx

ChipsAndKetchup · 30/09/2018 19:41

Indiana with Indie for short
