Can anyone help me with a longer name for Rue?

Serani · Apr 13th, 2012, 14:03 PM

We our having our second baby in August and if its a girl, we'd like to call her "Rue". But I'd like to give the baby a longer name and then use the shortened version 'Rue' as its name. For example our daughter is called Charlotte but she is known as Charlie and we never call her Charlotte but when she's older she will have the choice of which name to use. I'm struggling to think of a name which can be shortened to Rue.

So far I've thought of:
Prudence
Ruby
Ruth

But I'm not keen on any of those. Can anyone help?
Thank you

Thanks. Thats helpful. I quite like Drew but It so short anyway that it doesn't really need to be shortened to Rue. I've just thought of Robyn. Can you shorten that to Rue? X

I'd say Ruben or Rudy. Love them both x

^^ I really like Rowan...............although I do know a boy with this name.

I like Rudy, but then I'm pretty sure kids will pick on a name like that.

What about putting two names together, like Rudelise (Rude-Elise)...shortened to Rue

Ruma
Ruthanne
Adelrune
