[Opinions] Another Youtuber BA
In June, Jessica Kellgren-Fozard and her wife Claudia had a son that they named Rupert Henrik Kan. I really enjoy the name Rupert, I like how it's so stuffy it's adorable. And I enjoy the mixture of cultures in the combo (Kan is written in Hiragana I believe? Some kind of characters). The middle names honour both of Rupert's great-grandfathers.

They're both too old man-y for my liking but I assume its the bring back old man names and make them cute thing they were going for so they did it well haha.I would've preferred Rufus Henrik :)

I don't like Rupert. It does feel stuffy. Henrik on the other hand is warm and lovely. Henrik Rupert would have been incredible.

Rupert is so superior to Robert. I love it.

I like Rupert! It is stuffy and awkward, but in a sweet, nerdy way. The whole combo is nice.

Rupert sounds like Robert with a terrible case of croup.
That other middle name? Is that a part of the language or culture of one of the mothers?

Ooh, cool name. I like Henrik very much and Rupert is so ridiculously "elderly Englishman who goes on and on about how he used to hunt game in the days when his estate was still great" that I love it. I don't like the repeating k sounds in Henrik and Kan, though - the "kk" part is kind of like choking.
