I love the name Ruby all by itself.

Anything that ends in the -y sound seems young to me.


Then don't pick names that end in a y sound. There many other options out there.

Sadie and Ruby serve up a mean plate of eggs at the Diner. Ruby drinks out back and does some trade...

I think the PP is pointing out how incredibly ridiculous it is to drum up a name that will never be used just so that you can have a great nickname. Just go with the shortened name and stop being as the PP described (I certainly can't say it any better myself).

Wow, someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed. Where in the world did this come from?

this is correct.


OP here. I know that, but I guess I was hoping for some more creative options. Maybe there aren't any.

I love Sadie and Ruby, but they both seem a little young to me. I hesitate to use them unless I can come up with a longer form name that could be used in a more adult, professional setting one day if desired. The only options I've seen are really bad, though -- they seem like made up names. Am I missing anything obvious?
