Middle names that go with Rupert?

Hi all,

Probably going to go with Rupert for our little boy - but me & DH have a double barrelled last name so don't want a middle name that's too long or sounds too posh.

Any ideas?

Rupert Oliver (first choice)

Rupert Henry
Rupert Matthew
Rupert Isaac
Rupert George

I could carry on Grin I think lots of names flow really well because it's a lovely name, so ultimately will depend how well they sound with your surname too.

I think because Rupert is quite a fancy name, it's the more classic / sometimes posher sounding names that spring to mind to match with it.

I immediately thought Edward, then Daniel. No idea why.

Choose the poshest name you can think of e.g. Tarquin!

I think if you have a double barrelled surname then a single syllable would sound best, I second James

Possibly Cole, George, Jon/John, Ben?

Yep third James.

George or Henry.

Without wanting to sound mean but if you are concerned about sounding posh, Rupert plus a double barrel, would make your son the poshest sounding at my DCs school.
You may not care about that though so just ignore me! Nothing wrong with a posh name at any rate .
