Ruprecht

[monkeyboy2013]

Hi,
Just wondering if Ruprecht (boy's name) is ok? DH's idea...not sure myself. Thoughts? Be honest and thanks!

Have you seen Dirty Rotten Scoundrels?

Never heard of it, would hesitate for that reason alone. How many people are going to be told the name and say "what?"

Hmmmmm........I wouldn't be keen on it but if you like it go ahead.

How do you pronounce it?

Have you got a german connection? English version is Rupert.

Mother?

Not mother?

You're with me, tethers

Ruprecht do you want the genital cuff?

Your username says it all OP

A common name for the devil in Germany, apparently.

I came on to also say Dirty Rotten Scoundrels! (Great film though!!)

Oklahoma! Oklahoma! Oklahoma!

It's a no from me

I'd forgotten the genital cuff- that had me weeping with laughter.

Yes to the St Nicholas connection in German. Very negative. Nobody would call their child this in Germany. Might as well call him Satan.

Is this a wind up

Thanks everyone...just googled dirty rotten scoundrels and ruprecht and am now crying with laughter. Apparently DH has quite the sense of humour and even suggested my username (I am new to mumsnet...). Will close this discussion down ...and back to the drawing board.

Please use Rupert instead!
