I think it's a lovely name and goes really well with Ruby. If DS had been a DD would have been Alice May.

Was coming on to say May, I think one syllable is best.

Ruby May.

We have kerenza for our little girl. I have never heard anyone else using it! We have Lucy Kerenza Violet so I'm sure it will go lovely with Ruby xx

I know 3 Ruby Mae/ Mays. Please no.
Ruby Karenza is lovely. I have a Cornish friend with that as a middle name. It will give her her own identity.

I don't think you could have Ruby Lily or Ruby Chloe as they have same 2 syllables with stress on first. Like Karenza though. Pretty and unusual.

If you have a long surname a single syllable name would be best for the middle name I think.

Mae/May is probably the most common middle name choice with Ruby. Ruby Jade would be nice if it wasn't a combination of two different stones that wouldn't actually look nice together! Ruby Faye is like Ruby Mae but less common. Ruby Leigh? I can't think of many middle names! It's the problem that I always have!

Before reading your suggestions Catherine popped into my head so of hour three I'd go for Karenza.
