Robin & Ray are expecting their third daughter.

She will join Rose & Ruby. 

What do you suggest? 

Do you think they should stick with R?

They've been searching for months so I am pretty sure they've looked at all the standard R names.

My name is Rebecca. I have three sisters: Rachel, Ruth and Rose. I like my name, I just hate the naming convention. I introduce myself to everyone as Becca.

Also - since we are in the digital age: It makes picking a formal email address difficult (RLASTNAME@gmail.com for example). Whoever registered with google/yahoo/hotmail first got the email address. But even that didn't fix the problem. My sisters and I would still get eachother's emails from our friends who would swap our addresses. Its the little things I wish my parents thought of before they did this to us.

I vote Raven, Rowan, Roxanne or Rain. They chose a theme, no reason to quit now.

Well. They're kind of stuck doing it now. If they change, the new baby will feel outcasted in a way and also it would seem weird.

I don't like when people do this. They should at least try to come up with a name that has some nickname options.

They could name her Rayanne after her dad

I would say River, but I feel like they also like 4 letter names, so... Rita?

with the parents also being R's i wouldn't stop the R theme (this is the only time i've ever rec'd that lol) unless they plan on having lots more kids or have a name they like that isnt R.

I really like Roslyn

I think they are stuck to the R theme by now...

I think Ruth, Roxanne, Ramona, Rhiannon, Raina, Renee, Rowena, or even Renata would work. I think River, like some other people suggested, is nice too. I really prefer Rhys for a boy, spelled that way, but I think in this case, Reese would even work.

I think Ramona would be great with their names!

They should definitely stick with R at this point.

Rose and Ruby are also both color names so I vote for Raven.

Reina Spanish for queen

With that many Rs, it would be a bit silly NOT to use an R name. I think Ramona goes quite nicely with Rose and Ruby. I love that name anyway, it was on my list when I was pregnant.

Yes, I think they should definitely stick with an R name - it's not my preferred family naming style, but it's way beyond switching it up now.

Raya/Raja/Reia/Reya
Rebecca/Rebekah with the nickname Becca, Becks or Becky - if they are considering not using an R name, this might be a compromise
Reese
Ruth with nickname Rue (a bit too trendy because of The Hunger Games, maybe!)
