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?

tiniti fair point - our names in the double barrel aren't the least bit posh sounding, I'm just a raging feminist who refused to give up my last name Grin we thought rupert was cute as could be shortened to Roo.

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 .

Yep third James.

George or Henry.

LoveYouTilTheEnd · 02/11/2016 20:31

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?

Bedsheets4knickers · 02/11/2016 20:27

Oohh or Harris

DrDreReturns · 02/11/2016 20:27

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

Yes to Alexander x
