[Opinions] Ruth vs Rhoda
No nicknames! (Can't really think of any anyway). Which would you choose if you had to, and why?

Ruth!
I like that story also. Strong affection for a mother-in-law isn't that usual! (I never had a mother-in-law, so can't comment to that.)
I really don't care for either but I guess I am choosing Ruth. When I pronounce it correctly it's sweet and down to earth although I can only picture an elderly woman or a young girl dressed in old fashioned clothing. Problem is like half the time I have a hard time pronouncing Ruth, it's just much easier to say Roof. But inspite of that I still prefer it to Rhoda, which just sounds like the word road with an -a tacked on the end.

Ruth is hard to say , where I live..even those who speak English well have trouble with the "th" sound, thus, "Root".
Ruth! I love Ruth. I think it sounds so strong. Rhoda is nms.
I don't like either name.
If I had to I would choose Ruth just because it conjures a sweet girl I knew in high school.
