Thank you Smile I don't know if I'm brave enough to use Robin!

Robin is lovely.

I personally really like Louis. But yes, Robin is great!

Robin, definitely. Why would you need to be brave?

Louis is fine but I much prefer Robin - lovely name and fairly 'normal' without being overused - not sure why you'd need to be brave to use it?

Robin is a lovely name, can be abbreviated to Rob when older. Personally I don't like Louis at all I'm afraid.

Would you pronounce Louis as Lewis or Lou-ee? I quite like Lewis but prefer Robin to Lou-ee.

Robert on BC as Robin sounds childish - think Winnie The Pooh.
Louis too similar to Louise. Lewis?

Haha, why couldn't you use Robin? That's a very normal name to me! It's so sweet!

Robin! Why the need to be brave?

Louis will be mispronounced both Lou-is and Lou-ee (and the latter sounds like Loo and wee Blush)

Robin! I know a grown up Robin and have always thought it a lovely name on him. It seems a relatively normal name to me, don't think it necessitates being particularly 'brave' Smile

Robin is great. I know two and they both go by Rob though, which I don't like.

Love the name Robin! I wanted to use it for our second boy but it sounded silly with our surname. I'd definitely choose Robin over Louis every time :-)
