I went through a phase of really liking it, it was even one of our top names if
Archie had been a girl... thankfully he wasn’t and we didn’t call him
Ruby because I really dislike it now! I’ve met a lot of people with dogs called
Ruby which put me off, and I find it a little childish-sounding without a longer more formal name to go with it.
I did see a BA once for a Rubinda who went by
Ruby as a nickname which I thought was quite nice!
