Ruprecht is a traditional German masculine name with ancient Germanic roots. It derives from 'hruod' meaning 'fame' and 'berht' meaning 'bright' or 'famous'. This name was particularly popular among medieval German nobility and royalty. Ruprecht is the German form of Robert and also the traditional name of Knecht Ruprecht, a companion of Saint Nicholas in German folklore who is similar to Krampus. While the name has declined in everyday usage in modern Germany, it retains strong cultural connections and historical significance. In English-speaking countries, Ruprecht remains quite rare, often perceived as distinctively Old World and traditional.
