My 77 year old mother's name is Ruby. She always has said that there was never a time that she liked her name (and she's had a long time to "learn" to like it). For what that's worth.....

I think these choices are too extreme... I wouldn't call Ruby too "old-fashioned" or "too hip".

I think it's quite lovely. It has a lot of class and elegance that most of the other gem names (Jade, Amber, Diamond, Tiffany)lack. It is also a lovely old-fashioned name that hasn't seen the sudden rise in popularity of Emma, Sophie, Ava, Lola and other old-fashioned names. I think it's a really great choice.

sorry to say but i hate the name Ruby. You need to think about your child growing up with the name.

Love it.

I personally know three, ages 8, 7 and 2.

I don't think its "hip" really, just a lovely name.

Good luck!
