Oh I love Rupert Ellis! I actually just love Ellis as a fn but dd is Eleanor so it's too close. Love using it in the middle name spot though! Thanks!

It is okay.

Really nms. but then I'm British and it is thought of as a 'posh' name and that really isnt my style.

As for MN - I fall into the group that likes mn to represent/honour someone, or a cultural link not just because they sound okay

Rupert Matthew

Rupert August

Rupert Edward

Rupert Joseph

I really want to like it but my first association is the loud, hairy, tie dye wearing guy from Survivor a few years ago.
Although some of PP's combos do sound quite distinguished.

@pipeTsquared‌ that's interesting! I didn't know it was seen as a posh name.

I think it is a very gentlemanly name but also reminds me of Rupert bear the cartoon...

Mmm, I sort of have mixed feelings on it. I want to like it but it seems a little pretentious.

I am loving it! I had never thought about this one before.

@zebrapanther1311 - names in the UK have much more class conitations than in the US (I am just going on tb though)

This is my dog's name and I really regret it because I love it for people and now could never use it. I think it's great and unusual without being weird.

I love it.  I actually was thinking about it on my drive home the other day because it's a name you don't here much.
