Hi all,

Just wanted to get everyone’s opinions on the name Rupert??
Even I feel like it’s an old fashioned posh persons name but I just love it. All of my friends and family are not impressed.

Bear with me, I thinking about it.....

Nah, too wet. Reuben and Rufus are both lovely though.

I know a Rupert and he's not posh at all. Speaks well but is a total metalhead.

I know brothers Reuben and rufus.

Reuben I about 4 now. Has long hair and mum still breastfeeds and he has a daily nap at 4.
Rufus is about 1 now.
Mummy is a hippy . Not sure about daddy though.

This family have ruined the names for me though.

Reuben is also still not toilet trained. True story all this. Not just made up because I don't like the names.
