jade. ruby. opal. i would list more existing gem-as-people-names but unfortunately my specific brand of rock autism has me thinking most frequently about apophyllite and ulexite and chalcanthite and literally any tourmaline

gonna rock (ha) up to the function with my lovely child galena

I think Jasper and Amber should both be gender-neutral names. Stop gendering rocks.
