Making up the whys (fun, I know you didn't ask for it, but Sol and Ruby named all their kids after someone).
Emilia is for her great aunt Kathy Em, who had been on her deathbed for the last fifteen years, waiting for her name to be passed on before dying. Ruby had just wanted to use her name and be done with it all.
Henry was named after his Uncle Donnie, who went by Donnie because he hated his name, Henry, to the extremes of refusing to admit it was his name. He felt happy and honored when Ruby and Sol told him that they'd named their child after him, but didn't speak with them for a week after they told him it was Henry, though they tried to tell him that they'd used Donald after him and after Ruby's grandfather.
Saul was because Ruby didn't want their kids named after them, and Sol did, so he convinced her to use a completely different name that only coincidencially sounded like his nickname. She never knew that those were his real motives.
Julia was after he managed to convince his wife just to honor his middle name in the kid's first.
Arthur was because she wanted to honor herself in the same way but rather less obviously.
Ida, Duncan and Fabian were after Ruby's Gram Ida, Uncle Donut and Grandma Fabiola.
