Really? Ruby? I think it's a cute name, but I've never heard it as a kid's name (not that I know so many kids, but you know...).
I think Wesley is a rather popular southern name, and also popular for heroes who fashion themselves The Dread Pirate Roberts.
My grandmother (Ann - remember?) had three siblings: Kathleen, Virginia and Joseph.
Virginia's daughter (my first cousin once removed? I think that's right) has one of my favorite girl names: Georgiana (though it's pronounced "Georgina"). There's a girl in my son's class called Georgia, which I also like. I would have guessed that Georgia is becoming more popular (although I don't think I can think of another kid called Georgia in the younger set nowadays), but Ruby is a surprise.
