What is Warner's full name in "Legally Blonde"?

Warner's full name in "Legally Blonde" is Warner Huntington III.

Warner is Elle Woods's college boyfriend in the 2001 film, played by Matthew Davis. He breaks up with Elle because he believes he needs a more traditionally “serious” partner to support his political ambitions. His formal name emphasizes his wealthy, old-family image and helps establish his privileged background.

The character's name is also used in the stage musical adaptation, which is based on Amanda Brown's 2001 novel and the film. Warner later becomes engaged to Vivian Kensington, but Elle's journey at Harvard Law School changes their relationship and ultimately makes clear that she has outgrown him.

A common mix-up is calling him “Warren” or omitting the Roman numeral. The character is Warner—not Warren—and “III” is part of the name commonly given in the film's character listings. Matthew Davis, who played Warner, was later widely recognized for portraying Alaric Saltzman in "The Vampire Diaries."
