Sounds like she was named after two relatives - totally different vibes

The names seem mismatched to me. I'm not a fan of the name Ruth but the people I've met named Ruth have been very nice. Yvette is relatively exotic and I do like it.

First of all, congrats to them! Secondly, I like the combo.

Yvette is pretty, and I like seeing it used. It makes me think of a female archer who would have wanted to join Robin Hood and his merry men, but Yvette also makes me think of a little old lady who knits and is the quiet, non-gossipy one in her social circle.

Ruth is okay.

I don't care for either name but together they really work for me. Also a very unique choice for a baby these days, I feel like these people are on the cusp of fashion.

They really are not, the name choice surprised me.

Maybe they aren't aware of it, but I really do feel like names are going to move further this way as part of the name Zeitgeist - in an effort to find something refreshing and "new-old" parents are going to start choosing the most random of middle-road names that have been overlooked for years because of their almost aggressive dullness, the kind that make you go "oh! That's.....nice" when you hear them because you're just like, what? A baby named Curtis Gordon? Yvonne Cheryl? Ok..... I guess those are some names all right....

That's just my prediction.

You're a genius! I've got a couple of distant cousins - sisters - named Yvonne and Cheryl!

I agree with you but somehow I was expecting something popular from them. Also, this is their first child.

Hi !!!

I like Yvette but not Ruth.

Ruth Yvette? Too many 't'.

Anyway it is quite elegant and unusual.

Congratulations to her parents!

I love Ruth and it always delights me to see it used. Yvette is a beautiful surprise in the mn slot. She's a lucky little person.
