What do people think? I absolutely love it and it’s the only boys name I like really but my mum hates it and is trying to put me off!

I can't believe that people on here prefer the name Robert!

You'd call 'Rob' in the supermarket and 20 people would turn around! So boring and unimaginative.

Rupert is much nicer imo OP

I know a couple of Rupert. I actually quite like it.

There seems to be a rash of little Ruperts popping up at the moment. I can’t for the life of me see the appeal. It’s about as attractive as Colin and Malcolm but with a red trouser slant too.

Wouldn’t do for us all to like the same thing though!

I don't any young Robs!

And I don't find Roop any nicer, personally. I much prefer Rob!

Sorry - I don't know any young Robs.

It's a no from me.

It's Army slang for an officer as it has such a reputation as a posh boy name.

I'm not a fan I'm afraid. I'd expect him to wear coloured jeans, a barbour jacket and have at least 2 black labradors in the back of one's Range Rover.

Sounds lovely 🤷🏼‍♀️
