There are so many adorable baby girl names out there, but one has completely stolen our hearts recently.
Long traditional names like Catherine and Elizabeth are not as popular as they used to be.
Shorter monikers are proving more popular than ever with parents, especially four-letter names for baby girls.
A lot of the names on our baby names list are short and sweet, but there's one name that is our all-time favourite.
The name Ruby is one of our favourite names for a girl.
It's short, sweet, but strong and regal, making it the perfect choice for your little one.
The name Ruby has seen a spike in popularity in recent years, with many new mums opting for shorter names for their daughters.
The charming moniker is of Middle English origin. It translates from the Old French name ‘Rubi’.
It comes from the beautiful gemstone of the same name, but it also means ‘precious stone’.
According to The Bump, the name is linked to wealth, health, passion, and success in love.
What is your favourite name for a baby girl? Do you prefer long and traditional names for girls or shorter ones?
