Which one out of these do you prefer? [name_f]Lucy[/name_f], [name_f]Ellie[/name_f], [name_f]Chloe[/name_f], [name_f]Poppy[/name_f], [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f] or [name_f]Ruby[/name_f]?

Thanks :slight_smile:

I really like lucy, its not used by anyone in my area i dont think. I love [name_f]Ruby[/name_f] but its hugely popular.

I think the beauty of [name_f]Lucy[/name_f] is she could be anyone. She cant boxed into a generation, or culture or any other category people associate some names into.

[name_f]Lucy[/name_f] is actually in my top five favorites right now! Sheā€™s so charming and spunky, but also literary and simple ā€“ a super versatile name that I can picture on absolutely anyone!
Out of your list, I think [name_f]Lucy[/name_f] or [name_f]Chloe[/name_f] would be my preference, but [name_f]Ruby[/name_f] is also sweet. Only considering [name_f]Lucy[/name_f] & [name_f]Ruby[/name_f] (which is such a hard choice), I still think Iā€™d pick [name_f]Lucy[/name_f]! The overall imagery is sweet and spunky, with a friendly girl-next-door feel.

I like her, [name_f]Lucy[/name_f] would 100% be on my list if she wasnā€™t so popular!
To me, the name [name_f]Lucy[/name_f] feels like a silky blue, and [name_f]Lucie[/name_f] feels like a very light pink or cream, sheā€™s very kind and sweet, ribbons, and twirly dresses, very feminine, but still strong and adventurous.
I donā€™t associate [name_f]Lucy[/name_f] with any generation or age group.
I like [name_f]Lucy[/name_f] and [name_f]Ellie[/name_f] out of your list, theyā€™d make for sweet sisters!
[name_f]Lucy[/name_f]: :ribbon: :sunny: :ballet_shoes: :blossom:
[name_f]Ruby[/name_f]: :lipstick: :crown: :rose: :cherries:
Iā€™d have to choose [name_f]Lucy[/name_f]!

Of your list, I love both [name_f]Lucy[/name_f] and [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f]!
Only considering [name_f]Lucy[/name_f] and [name_f]Ruby[/name_f], Iā€™d pick [name_f]Lucy[/name_f]. I have a very bad association with [name_f]Ruby[/name_f], so that probably influences my judgement. [name_f]Lucy[/name_f], however, is timeless and beautiful.

[name_f]Love[/name_f] [name_f]Lucy[/name_f] :heart: [name_f]Strong[/name_f] but sweet, reserved but assured, literary, bright and versatile. I imagine snow, pale pink and grey, delicate pressed flowers, books, and rolling waves.

Thatā€™s a hard set to choose between, but [name_f]Lucy[/name_f] is probably my favourite, followed by [name_f]Poppy[/name_f], [name_f]Chloe[/name_f], [name_f]Ruby[/name_f] then [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f].

Again, I prefer [name_f]Lucy[/name_f], but [name_f]Ruby[/name_f] is lovely. [name_f]Ruby[/name_f] feels more red, gold and glittery, lively, a little summery, connected to nature.

I do find it hard to pick between those two as theyā€™re my cousinsā€™ names, so it feels like ā€˜Lucy and Rubyā€™ come as one :laughing:

I love Lucyā€™s meaning, also how sweet and easy to say, she sort of just slides off your tongue. I think of I [name_f]Love[/name_f] [name_f]Lucy[/name_f], and also a brownish golden like fields after corn stalks etc. turn brown in the fall. Iā€™m not sure why lol. Most L names are yellow to me, and I think the ā€œUā€ next to it turns it a little brown for me.

Of the names you listed, [name_f]Poppy[/name_f], [name_f]Chloe[/name_f], and [name_f]Ruby[/name_f] are my favorites! I love [name_f]Lucia[/name_f], but Iā€™m not as fond of [name_f]Lucy[/name_f] personally, although I wish I was! I like [name_f]Ruby[/name_f] more than [name_f]Lucy[/name_f]. Sheā€™s a rich burgundy color for me, and reminds me of some really special kiddos to me - I always tell them theyā€™re more precious than rubies and so thatā€™s a really sentimental association for me. [name_f]Love[/name_f] that [name_f]Lucy[/name_f] means ā€œlightā€ though!

[name_f]Lucy[/name_f] is such a great name! Itā€™s short and sweet but has such a classic charm. I think of I [name_f]Love[/name_f] [name_f]Lucy[/name_f] and the character from Chronicles of [name_f]Narnia[/name_f]. [name_f]Lucy[/name_f] is hands down my favorite out of your options.

[name_f]Lucy[/name_f] is a Nameberry darling but she isnā€™t my favourite choice. For me I just hear the word loose which Iā€™m not keen on. However I do see the appeal sheā€™s sweet, timeless, has fun literacy connotations and a lovely meaning. I can imagine a quiet, introverted girl named [name_f]Lucy[/name_f] with blonde plaits in her hair.

[name_f]My[/name_f] favourite is [name_f]Ruby[/name_f]! Such a lovely summery gemstone name that shines brightly

[name_f]Ruby[/name_f] is my favourite I can envision a fun, bubbly person with dark features who loves to dance whereas [name_f]Lucy[/name_f] feels more introverted and quiet.

[name_f]Lucy[/name_f] is classic and timeless. Popular, without being overused. It is a lovely name, with a lovely meaning. Take no notice if anyone who hears ā€˜looseā€™ in the name. There are literally thousands of names that could be thought of in that way! [name_m]Just[/name_m] look at [name_f]Louise[/name_f]! But it isnā€™t the same because most of us get completely different imagery when we use the name.

Phoebe, Chloe & Ruby are my faves (in that order).

I donā€™t like Lucy but can see how others do
(itā€™s the ā€œseeā€ part that I donā€™t warm to for some odd reason). I see her as sweet, responsible, quietly confident, curious & bookish, and cheeky/ witty around her friends but generally introverted.

Ruby to me is dark haired, outgoing, fun, a little brash & sarcastic - and obviously associated with red & maroon tones (while Lucy is sky and navy blues).

Poppy is nice but it doesnā€™t age well imo (from my experience of knowing two now in their mid teens). I prefer it as a nickname to Penelope or Josephine etc.

Ellie is one of my least fave names (within the regular name category). I think itā€™s the smelly/jelly/belly sounds and I see it as babyish. I donā€™t like it as a nn even! :grimacing:

[name_f]Chloe[/name_f] / feels so trendy to me Iā€™ve never enjoyed saying this name, but I can see that it appears fashionable.

[name_f]Poppy[/name_f] / very cute and spunky, but prefer as a nickname for [name_f]Ophelia[/name_f] or [name_f]Penelope[/name_f].

[name_f]Ellie[/name_f] / we know about 10 Ellieā€™s so this name feels a bit redundant to me at this point. I do like some of the fuller options with this as a nickname though.

[name_f]Ruby[/name_f] / I think sheā€™s sparkly and spunky!

[name_f]Lucy[/name_f] / timeless classic with a sweet appeal.

I think of sprightly spirited chipper child who likes to explore the outside in a cute dress :womans_hat: :sunny: :worm: :blossom: :ballet_shoes: :dress:

I also love the sound and meaning of her name. [name_f]My[/name_f] first association is chronicles of narnia and then I love [name_f]Lucy[/name_f] but theyā€™re not strong associations to me and I donā€™t think theyā€™re a bad thing. [name_f]Lucy[/name_f] feels pretty timeless but still wish she wasnā€™t so popular rn.

[name_f]Ruby[/name_f] is also cute but it never got into my top names because I tend to have an aversion to b sounds (similar issue with Phoebe) but would love to meet others with the name! I can see her being spunky or being more introverted and loving to read books

I prefer [name_f]Ellie[/name_f] as a nickname. [name_f]My[/name_f] best friendā€™s sister is [name_f]Ellie[/name_f] but it just never felt like a full name to me.

Surprised [name_f]Chloe[/name_f] is still popular. While I can see it on a child, itā€™s starting to fell like a ā€œmomā€ name now

While the name is not for me, I can Poppyā€™s appeal. [name_f]Poppy[/name_f] feels fresh in the US but is quickly getting popular trying to catch up to its rank in the UK and Australia (similar to Phoebe). I imagine a spirited and spunky child and think it will be cute to meet one.

For [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f], I like the association with [name_f]Artemis[/name_f]. [name_f]My[/name_f] first introduction to [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f] as a name was Holdenā€™s younger sister in [name_m]Catcher[/name_m] in the [name_m]Rye[/name_m] so that is my main association followed by Friends tv show

Overall [name_f]Lucy[/name_f] is my favorite but would be thrilled to meet [name_f]Ruby[/name_f], [name_f]Poppy[/name_f], and [name_f]Phoebe[/name_f]!
