Ruth ((ヘブライ語:רות) ''rut'', ) is a common female given name, from Ruth the Moabite in the Book of Ruth, possibly from the Hebrew for "companion." In Israel, "Ruti" is a common nickname for ''Rut'' (Ruth) in the same way Bill is for William in English.〔(The Crosslinguistic Study of Language Acquisition - Page 342 by Dan Isaac Slobin )〕 In the Biblical story, Ruth tells her mother-in-law, Naomi, "Whither thou goest, I will go."
