Good luck!

We chose [name]Jane[/name] for our [name]Ruby[/name]'s mn and we [name]LOVE[/name] it! We also know a [name]Ruby[/name] [name]Adeline[/name] and I think that’s delicious!
[name]Ruby[/name] [name]Jane[/name] was my great-grandmother’s name, so I’ll second that suggestion. Two questions before we get started, though:
-
[name]How[/name] many syllables is your M last name? If it is a two-syllable last name (e.g., Masters), I’d opt for a one- or three-syllable middle name so you don’t end up with a monotonous pattern. Now, not every 2-2-2 name is monotonous - I happen to have one and it works. If you’ve got a one-syllable last name (e.g., Marks), I’d choose a three-syllable middle name for some variety and added flow, but that doesn’t mean a two-syllable middle name won’t work. I would not choose a one-syllable middle name with a one-syllable last name, though. For a three-syllable last name (e.g., [name]Morrison[/name]), I think a two-syllable middle name works beautifully, but a one-syllable can be just as powerful!

What style are you going for? Something vintage, classic, with a touch of feminine charm, something more whimsical, or something more modern? [name]Do[/name] you have any other children that you might want to “match” [name]Ruby[/name]'s name to? [name]Do[/name] you want to honor a relative or friend? A hobby? [name]Ruby[/name]'s expected birth month? Lots of possibility here!
For the classic-vintage feel, I’d recommend:
[name]Ruby[/name] [name]Alice[/name] - [name]Ruby[/name] [name]Adeline[/name]
[name]Ruby[/name] [name]Claire[/name] - [name]Ruby[/name] [name]Charlotte[/name] - [name]Ruby[/name] [name]Caroline[/name]
[name]Ruby[/name] [name]Diana[/name]
[name]Ruby[/name] [name]Esther[/name] - [name]Ruby[/name] [name]Emmeline[/name]
[name]Ruby[/name] [name]Faye[/name] - [name]Ruby[/name] [name]Frances[/name] - [name]Ruby[/name] [name]Francesca[/name]
[name]Ruby[/name] [name]Grace[/name] - [name]Ruby[/name] [name]Georgia[/name] - [name]Ruby[/name] [name]Genevieve[/name]
[name]Ruby[/name] [name]Hannah[/name] - [name]Ruby[/name] [name]Helena[/name]
[name]Ruby[/name] [name]Irene[/name] - [name]Ruby[/name] [name]Isabel[/name]
[name]Ruby[/name] [name]Jane[/name] - [name]Ruby[/name] [name]Josephine[/name]

[name]Ruby[/name] [name]May[/name] - [name]Ruby[/name] [name]Martha[/name] - [name]Ruby[/name] [name]Madeleine[/name]
[name]Ruby[/name] [name]Olive[/name] - [name]Ruby[/name] [name]Ophelia[/name]
[name]Ruby[/name] [name]Pauline[/name] - [name]Ruby[/name] [name]Patricia[/name]

[name]Ruby[/name] [name]Tess[/name] - [name]Ruby[/name] [name]Therese[/name] - [name]Ruby[/name] [name]Teresa[/name]
[name]Ruby[/name] [name]Vivian[/name]
