hooray henry

• Expression argotique britannique désuet pour un jeune homme de la haute société, généralement bruyant, arrogant et friand des cercles exclusifs. Le terme combine « hourra » (cri d'enthousiasme) avec le prénom courant « Henry », créant un stéréotype de jeunesse privilégiée.

A dated British slang term referring to a young upper-class man, typically one who is loud, arrogant, and enjoys socializing in exclusive circles. The phrase combines 'hooray' (an exclamation of excitement) with the common name 'Henry' to create a stereotypical caricature of privileged youth.
