I like Ruby. Sweetheart is overboard. But it is a middle name so not such a big deal.

When she's older she can be like "sweetheart's my middle name".

Love Ruby, not so much about Sweetheart.

I dont mind Ruby, although it reminds me of a grandmother...
However, "Sweetheart"... really? Why?

“Jen’s grandmother, who passed away recently, would always call her ‘Sweetheart,’” Maguire explained to Jay Leno. “We named her that to honor her grandmother.” As for Ruby? "We just like the name.”

Well, at least there is a nice story behind it.
Unlike some of the Fifi Trixibelle-esque names floating around.

Weird southern people do. The only time Jack is called Jack by his family is when I type about him online. Otherwise he's Jack Edward...unless you're Evie, then he's Jackie Edward.

I think it actually seems really cute. :) Now, if she grows up to be a hobbit or something, it'll look kinda weird, but whatever.

Ruby is cute. but wtf are parent's obsessions with cutesy names? and also does tobey expect his daughter to become a pornstar?

i LOVE Ruby. it is actually on my list for a girl.

i say who cares about Sweetheart. if it means alot to the parents and there really is a meaning behind it, then there you go.
Just be happy it's the MIDDLE name and not the first...

For a celebrity name, its not THAT bad. pretty low key compared to a handful of other stars.

I think it's cute. I like that they named her Sweetheart and it wasn't just a crazy middle name they came up with. It actually had meaning.

Ruby is pretty. At least Sweetheart is a middle name not first. Since the name has so much personal meaning don't let anyone talk you out of it.

I think it is cute and it has meaning...there are far worse names out there. Its not something i would choose but it isnt that bad and most people dont go by their middle name

I saw somewhere that it's not her legal name, but if it is ... eh. Ruby's lovely, and Sweetheart could be much worse.

Love Ruby ofc ;) Sweetheart is just silly, but I guess it could be worse.

Ruby Maguire is lovely and Jennifer is a jewellery designer so it's rather fitting. Sweetheart is blugh.

I like the name Ruby but... Sweetheart? I am sorry but that is a bad idea in my eyes, like the people who name their kid Lucy Diamond (yes I've seen it done). There are just certain things that don't go as a name.

Ruby is a very nice choice.

Sweetheart is not a given name. I think that part is completely stupid. They could've named her anything and still called her sweetheart affectionately.

Whatever. Ruby S. Maguire I guess she'll be.

I agree it's not so bad as far as celebrity kids' names go, but I really dislike it when people use cutesy adjectives like Sweetheart in naming their children. Or Precious. A lot of Filipinos seem to enjoy calling their daughters that. I just think it sounds like you're naming a yappy little lapdog instead of a child.

what in the... god imagine being like sixteen years old and telling someone "yeah my middle name is sweetheart!" or even worse, being forty years old and having to say that. uggh! ruby is nice, though.

But then again, I was almost Charlotte Sweetpea...

Ruby is very pretty. Sweetheart, even knowing the story... eh. Not so keen on.
