One of the most intriguing Punjabi girl names, bringing with it an easy path to the stylish nickname Ruby, as well as the very on-trend rhythmic "-ani" ending.

A phonetic variant of the gorgeous Greek name Ione, and one that was used by model Coco Rocha for her daughter in 2015.

Coby enjoyed a spike of popularity in the late 90s and early 2000s, along with similar names like Cody and Corey. The unrelated name Kobe, however, enjoyed a spike of its own in 2020, the year the basketball legend Kobe Bryant passed away. Kobi also rose that year for both boys and girls, and today is given to both in equal numbers.
