How would you say "Glory"

..the woman's name "Glory" or "Gloria" (as Gloria Gaynor, the US singer; Gloria Macapagal, the President of Philipines; Gloria Swanson, the film actress of the 20s).

I know it can be written in such a way that it sounds in Chinese, more or less, as it does in English.

Otherwise, I know that the name has a Christian origin (it is the Glory's Sunday, or Passover Sunday). In this case, should it be something as 荣 ?

I am looking forward your answer.

Thanks inadvance to all the participants & readers.

glory ==> 格洛瑞
瑞 is rui, which is closer to "ry" than 丽 (li) is.
