Ruby or Lola

[SaraJS216]

Which do you prefer? (If either!)

Ruby

Both lovely! I think I slightly prefer Ruby

Ruby.

Lola will still make people think of transvestites if they are a certain age (Grandparents).

Ruby by a long way.

Not Lola.

Ruby

Both both make me think of names people give dogs like Pugs. Sorry

Ruby

Ruby is lovely

They are both nice but I prefer Ruby. I know quite a few Lola's and a couple of Ruby's.

Ruby

Ruby. Lola is ubiquitous and not particularly nice to begin with.

I agree they sound to me like puppy names...

Neither, sorry. Ruby is too popular. Lola- puppy's name.

Ruby.

Or Robina if you like that sort of sound and want something unusual.

I’m afraid Lola immediately makes me sing “she was a dancer”

Having said that I have one with a very popular name and one with a name everyone hates!! So whichever you love most

Ruby

I like them both. Very pretty names. Can't really decide which I prefer. Do you have a middle name?

Lola - it's a lovely name.

Ruby

Wasn't Lola a showgirl?

@Aprilshowersandhail she was

I’d choose Ruby definitely, still quite popular but less so than 10-15 years ago. I used to quite like Lola but then someone mentioned on a thread here that they associate it with Lolita so that really put me off the name, but maybe I’m easily swayed?

You’re both right! A showgirl. I’ve been singing the wrong lyrics for years

Ruby. I do like Lola too actually but prefer Ruby.

Ruby,

not robina! Sounds like Ribena😕

Hate lola
