Ruth is okay as an honoring mn other than that I have issues with it. The biggest issue is it is so hard to pronounce, it is much easier to say Roof so any Ruth I meet usually becomes Roof. Also the only word I can think of that begins with Ruth is Ruthless.
Ruth looks nice enough but it sounds much better in my head than when I say it. It sounds so terrible when said out loud.
To be fair I have a borderline speech impediment when it comes to th. I can make the th sound but it feels much less natural than f sounds. Ruth is especially hard since it is one syllable and it ends on the th sound, with a name like Anthea or Dorothea or Theodore it is much easier to pronounce.
Mabel is okay, I prefer Maple. Maybelle is actually nicer sounding than Mabel but Mabel looks nicer and doesn't seem made up like Maybelle.

Favorite Names:
Fiona, Leona, Serafina, Artemis, Hazel, Luna, Adelina, Callisto, Stella, Augustine, Frieda, Eleanor, Deirdre, Ursa, Citrina, Maple, Iris, Juniper.
Ciaran, Connor, Rowan, Cedar, Arthur, Magnus, Fionn, Theron, Xavier, Cedric, Teagan, Quinn, Adrian, Julian, Gavin, Gryphon, Taliesin.
