jets/rubies might be the best solution several
reasons:
(1) no relation to gender roles,
(2) sound like gents and ladies, satisfying those who cognitively have
difficulty associating larks and robins with the corresponding roles.
(3) easier and faster to say. Jets, unlike larks, has no hard consonant.
Rubies has a hard consonant "b", but the sound of the "u" leaves
one's lips
and tongue positioned perfectly to utter the "b". (This is a benefit to
new callers, who often have difficulty prompting on time.)
