Isobel too popular.

Kate and Penny and shortening of names. I would go with Catherine

Isobel isn't too popular but Isabelle is and it would mean she'd be 'Isobel with an o'. Not keen on it.
Kate is nice but not sure if it would go e,g, Kate Carter.
Ruby - I'm not that keen on it but it's ok.
Penny - I'd register her as Penelope

In order: Kate, Penny, Ruby, Isobel

I like Ruby and Isobel

I have always loved the name Kate. Pet name would have been Kitty.

They are all good names!
I voted for Ruby.

Prefer Kate short for Katherine / Catherine and Penny short for Penelope. Not keen on Ruby. Isobel is lovely especially with this spelling.

Kate/Catherine 10

Penny/Penelope 9

Isobel 9

Ruby 6. It could sound like Rubik cube.

I’m a Kate, short for Katherine, never use Katherine, I hate it.

I also have a Penny and she is just that, no Penelope. She definitely suits Penny .
