see, i voted for Ruth because i wasnt sure if it was supposed to be Elisa or Elise. Amelia Elisa has too much of an A sound at the end of both names but if its Amelia Elise then i say go for that name.
I love Elise by itself, but I love Amelia Ruth as a combo. However, the Ruth Richards part is a bit tricky, and Amelia Elise is really hard to pronounce. But I voted for Amelia Ruth.
Amelia Ruth is one of the prettiest combinations i've heard in a while. It's just stunning. The other two names you chose are gorgeous as well, and Elise is pretty, but there's something so soft and strong about Ruth as a name. I love it.
I don't particularly like Ruth in general. I don't like the alliteration, either. I also feel that Elise fits better with Louise as well as Eleanor and Amelia (obviously, haha) for that matter. They're good names either way!
I have a little girl due in April and we have decided to name her Amelia Leigh. It's hard to decide on a middle name for Amelia, because honestly, not a whole lot goes. I wanted Amelia Rayne, but my boyfriend vetoed that quickly. He wanted Amelia Bell, and he would say it with the worst country accent. It reminded me of a cow. So we had to compromise with Leigh. Everyone we tell loves it.

Both sound lovely though. You can't go wrong either way.
