All lovely!

What sounds best with the surname?

Happenchance · 04/05/2021 23:50

Ruby then Lucy.

I've been put off the name Louise (and therefore Louisa) recently because I've realised that it would make a good name for a laxative Confused

MyPanda · 04/05/2021 23:52

Ruby - tiny but down-market
Lucy - lovely, classic
Louisa - a MN favourite but I don't get it.. a bit stuffy to my ears
Nina - nice, fun name

EvilOnion · 04/05/2021 23:53

Love Louisa, Lucy is nice too.

Not keen on Ruby or Nina.

Goodtohear · 04/05/2021 23:54

Lucy or nina for me.

Mehoooole · 04/05/2021 23:57

Lucy or Nina are both great names!

girlmama32 · 04/05/2021 23:58

Louisa is lovely, Lucy is also nice and quite a timeless classic.

LegoPoliceman · 04/05/2021 23:58

In order of preference:
Nina
Louisa
Ruby
Lucy

All lovely names, though.

ofwarren · 05/05/2021 00:03

Louisa is my favourite

Parkandride · 05/05/2021 00:04

Nina is my favourite, was a close 2nd for DD born last week so I'd love to see someone use it.

Then Lucy (can't go wrong), Louisa (bit wet) and Ruby (feel it peaked a while back)

Edenember · 05/05/2021 00:08
  1. Louisa by a long way
  2. Lucy
  3. Ruby
  4. Nina
alexdgr8 · 05/05/2021 00:08

Lucy or Louisa, both are fab.
Nina is ok.
Ruby sounds like a bar-maid.
not an unpleasant name, but sounds a bit below-stairs.

IamnotwhouthinkIam · 05/05/2021 00:08

In order for me:

  • Nina (pretty, simple, elegant )
-Louisa (lovely and classic sounding- would be higher but I hate nn Lou)

gap-
-Lucy (classic but I find it too sweet/cute personally)
-Ruby (not my taste - trendy yet still feels too "old lady" to me)

Ellmau · 05/05/2021 00:11

Lucy nice classic name.

Louisa OK.

Ruby a bit dated.

Nina not super keen.

GintyMcGinty · 05/05/2021 00:14

Less keen on Ruby - others lovely

bluebell34567 · 05/05/2021 00:26

Louisa

MrsPsmalls · 05/05/2021 00:28

I love them all but would choose them in this order Nina Ruby Louisa Lucy

DramaAlpaca · 05/05/2021 00:33

Louisa and Lucy are both gorgeous.

Ruby is nice too, but not a patch on the above.

A big no to Nina, it's got no substance to it.

worriedatthemoment · 05/05/2021 00:34

Ruby

AdaColeman · 05/05/2021 00:47

I'm not too keen on Nina, but the others are all lovely, I especially like Ruby.

Carouselfish · 05/05/2021 01:15

All except Louisa. Louise is an overused middle name in my generation. Also very aware of the 'wheeze' sound and its not lovely.

TatianaBis · 05/05/2021 01:32

Louisa for sure.

Lucy and Nina a bit meh.

Ruby downmarket.

ThatIsMyPotato · 05/05/2021 06:55

I like Lucy and Nina

RickOShay · 05/05/2021 07:00

Nina or Louisa.
