What do people think of Ruby?

My cousin has got it in her head that Ruby Sue is a good name after seeing it when National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation was re-run this Holiday Season.

I love Ruby. Ruby Sue's a little too much for me.

I like Ruby especially as a middle name. But Ruby Sue sounds like her family tree is a stick.

LOL! That was what I thought, too. I was thinking hillbilly redneck. :)

Agreed!

Maybe something like:

Ruby Eloise
Ruby Juliet
Ruby Elizabeth

I hate the name Ruby, it just rubs me the wrong way.

It's not bad. Ruby is a guilty pleasure of mine! Sue is my mother's middle name. lol

I like Ruby - not one of my favourites but definitely super cute.

Ruby Sue makes me think Rubik's cube....

I love Ruby, but hate Ruby Sue.

I don't care much for Ruby. It is a fine name, especially as a middle, but it sounds so trendy to my ears now. In the same vein as Isabella, Mia, etc.
Absolutely loathe Ruby Sue.

I like Ruby. I don't care for Ruby Sue, but there's really nothing wrong with it.

I love the name Ruby. One of my cats is called Ruby and it suits her so much. I don't like Ruby Sue though.

It's become really popular here in the UK, so I'd personally avoid it. Ruby Sue is a bit redneck, I think.

I know a Ruby and a Scarlett in the same family, which I find odd. Will the next cousin be Magenta, perhaps?

I like Ruby. Ruby Sue is a little too Redneck Homecoming Queen.

I like Ruby, but Ruby Sue is a bit too back woods for me.

Like a lot of other posters, I love Ruby, but Ruby Sue is too redneck for me (even though I love Ruby Sue as a character in that movie).
