The girl who lived opposite us when I was little was called Roo. I think her real name was Rachel.
Anyway, I like Rufus best of your list and don’t know anyone with any of those names.

Rupert is ok.

Hate Reuben.

I immediately thought of a kangaroo also.

Rupert the Kangaroo

I clicked on this really hoping you were an australian trying to name a Kangaroo!

Like them all! Rufus is my favourite.

NellMangel · 07/08/2018 22:02

Rufus is my favourite. Then Reuben.

Not a fab of Rupert.

Ruri, ruaridh for the proper spelling are nicer

I like Rupert best. Don't know any personally but Reuben and Rufus seem fairly popular on mumsnet from what I've seen x

I like Rufus best, don't know any of them. I know one child Reuben and one adult Rupert (a bit of a "character'!).

All lovely, especially Reuben Smile
