Hi all! So it looks like my little sisters name is going to be Ruby! We are now trying to decide on a middle name for her. My other siblings and I all have a middle name that honors a family member, so that would be preferable but not an absolute rule! Here is a poll of possible family names we could use, as well as a couple other thoughts we have had (: Please feel free to leave any feedback or explain your answers, as well as any other suggestions you have! Thanks (:
Ruby Jacqueline (my grandmothers name)
Ruby Ann (my mom and grandmas middle names)
Ruby Ellen (my other grandmas middle name)
Ruby Julia (close family member who passed away)
Ruby Joanne (great aunts name)
Ruby Noelle (her birth month is December)
Ruby Holiday (same as above)
Ruby Josephine (another name my parents really like)
Something else (leave a comment with suggestions!)
I voted for [name_u]Ruby[/name_u] [name_f]Holiday[/name_f] - I love it! I prefer it heaps over [name_f]Noelle[/name_f] for linking with the season. Such a happy, upbeat name!
I also voted for [name_f]Jacqueline[/name_f] (love this and love the grandmother link), [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] (it goes well and your parents like it), and [name_f]Ellen[/name_f] (beautiful, neat, sounds great with [name_u]Ruby[/name_u], links with a grandma.)
[name_f]Ruby[/name_f] [name_f]Noelle[/name_f] is my favourite (and what I voted for) but if you really want to honour one of your family members, [name_f]Ruby[/name_f] [name_f]Jacqueline[/name_f] is my favourite of those
[name_u]Ruby[/name_u] [name_f]Jacqueline[/name_f] is my favorite because all of the other siblings have family names, but [name_u]Ruby[/name_u] [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] and [name_u]Ruby[/name_u] [name_f]Noelle[/name_f] are really beautiful, too! [name_f]Glad[/name_f] y’all are going with [name_u]Ruby[/name_u]! Not that my opinion matters, but it was my favorite of your options.
My favourite is Ruby Noelle! I think it is gorgeous! If it helps, my name is Ruby and my middle name is Imogen. So Ruby Imogen! I really love my name and (I know I’m biased) I think you have made a very good choice
