Someone posted about Months of the Year names like June and April, so I thought I'd follow up and ask:

What gemstone names do you all like?

List of some traditional "gemstone" names:

Ruby
Opal
Pearl
Jade
Sapphira (Sapphire)
Esmeralda (Emerald)
Amethyst
Coral


I can't think of any more right now but I know there must be. I really like Ruby and Opal and that's about it.

A lot of gem names sound like words, not names, so I don't think they're that nice. e.g. Amethyst, Opal

I've always liked Ruby but I don't think I would give a child that name so maybe one day I will name a cat or dog that :p

I would like Jade except I knew a particularly obnoxious one when I was a teenager

Gemma is ok.
Margaret means "pearl"
Jasper is ok
