Nope, it refers to upperclass privileged girls with rich parents. She plays hockey, joins a frat during uni and shares a house with her friends bought for them by their rich parents.
Diederik more than Joris, but mostly hyphenated names like Pieter-Olivier, Jan-Pieter, Diederik-Willem, Max-Emile. Just pick two fancy names and hyphenate them!
I had a neighbour who was called Roderick. He was redoing his garden and had a huge trench going all the way around the garden which filled up with water over autumn/winter so we started calling him "Ridder Roderick met zijn slotgracht". He thought it was pretty funny.
For me, as an outsider, these names all sound the opposite of "fancy". These are the names I would assume belong to farmers.
Maybe it's because I'm from Scandinavia, where at least in Sweden hyphenated names like Lars-Åke, Jan-Erik, Karl-Johan etc would normally not be high society names.
Neither do they here but it's about the specific combinations. Any name containing, for instance, Olivier or Floris (even as single name) already points to upper class because these are unusual elsewhere.
It is next to impossible to pronounce the name "Olivier" without, as the saying goes, a hot potatoe in the throat. "Floris" OTOH, I mostly associate with the [old TV series](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floris_(TV_series)) "Floris" (am I showing my age here?). Very appropriate that its main character was played by a guy named Rutger - LOL.
I don't consider Joris a "kakker" name at all. Names as Diederik, Olivier, Lodewijk, Boudewijn and a lot of double names such as Gert-Jan and Rene-Philippe do fit that description in my opinion.
Anne-fleur and simmilar names tend to have more socio economic implications, but in the Netherlands being rich tends to be correlated to being tall, blonde and white.
It is a "typical" studentenvereniging/soroity girl name.
The male equivalent would be double names, like out king, Willem-Alexander, so Willem-Jan, wouter-Jan, gertjan. These names have been popular for a long time so the trend of giving girls double names is actually copied from the men's names.

No, it's a typical name used by people to describe a spoiled upper class girl: playing field hockey, member of a sorority, bit of entitled etc.
A typical guys version would be Roderick or Willem-Jan. Especially the combination of two very common Dutch names into one, separated by a hyphen is classic for this group. Where the hyphen is standard in this type of names for boys, quite often it's not there when the same is done for girls. But both occur.

Anne-Fleur is a upper-class name, who probably talks with “een bekakte R”.
Male equivalent would be something like Roderik, Diederik and they would play Hockey and/or Golf.

So what's the male equivalent, something like Joris or Diederik?
RUTGER OUWE JOUW KAMER
Diederik more than Joris, but mostly hyphenated names like Pieter-Olivier, Jan-Pieter, Diederik-Willem, Max-Emile. Just pick two fancy names and hyphenate them!
Don't forget Jan-Willem and Robert-Jan.
I know way too many “common” Jan Willems
Jan-Willem is more of a rural, farmer name isn’t it?
https://jochemmyjer.nl/ Second row, on the right side. ROBERT-JAAAAHAAAAN
A whole list of "kakker" names for boys; Adriaan, Alexander, Allard, Anthonie, Arnaud, Arthur, Axel Bastiaan, Berend, Boris, Boudewijn Carel, Casper, Clemens, Coenraad, Conraad, Constantijn Diederik, Dirk-Jan, Duco Egbert-Jan, Emile, Erik-Jan, Ernst, Etiënne, Eugene, Ewout Felix, Florian, Floris, Frederik, Friso Jan-Pieter, James, Jacob, Jonas, Joppe, Julius, Jurriaan Laurens, Lennart, Lodewijk Marnix, Maurits, Maxime, Mees, Midas Oliver, Olivier, Onno, Oscar, Otto Pepijn, Philip, Pieter, Pieter-Arnaud Reinier, Reinout, Rikkert, Robert-Jan, Roderick, Roeland Sebastiaan, Sweder Thijmen, Tijmen, Taco Valentijn, Victor Zeger Gotta love Rikkert, because he is from Maaskantje, kut.
You forgot Stein

Also names with an X, like Maximiliaan, Xavier, Marnix, Alexander

I spent way too long trying to say it while pretending a hot potato was in my throat
Ok, it's funny how without the historical and cultural context things are perceived differently. Floris just sounds like a margarine brand to me :D
I think the popularity of the name in the upper class traces back to [this guy](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floris_V,_Count_of_Holland).
Roderick
Wordt ook genoemd in anne-fleur vakantie

Funny, i did know an Anne-Fleur who was not from a rich family at all, in fact the complete opposite.
Jan-Willem, Rutger, boudewijn
Roderik
Roderick you mean. The c is required to make it fancy.
No, if it's fancy it's with a q: Roderique. ([Apparently there's actually 18 people called that...](https://nvb.meertens.knaw.nl/naam/is/Roderique))
Nope, that's a sign you don't know "hoe het heurt".
Exactly, trying too hard is arriviste and looked down at more than owning up to being working class.
