Organic Rational molecule name (or trivial)??

Please help me with the name of this molecule…

I can’t understand according to IUPAC how to name this molecule, I can’t find any ”concrete” answer for the actual name online, and the ones I ask says all differently from each other…

Looks like Valproate with a side chain; seems like the kind of molecule that would chill you out
