I'm currently 30 weeks pregnant with a baby girl and am struggling to decide on a name. One of the very few names we agree on is Robyn.
I like it as it is not too common but is not so unusual that it's hard to spell/pronounce. Just really looking for peoples opinions on the name and if I need to go back to the drawing board.

I love the name Robyn. I have a friend named Robyn and we are expecting DS2 and are considering Robin for his middle name.

GinAfterBedtime not picked a middle name yet as been so stuck for a first name! My DD (11) isn't keen on the name which made me doubt myself but the positive replies have been reassuring.

Love it. Would have been in the running for us if an acquaintance didn’t have it already xx

I really like it. I only know one Robyn, she's around 16/17 and gorgeous. It's a beautiful name , girly but different ! In a good way

@veeboo I think Robin is usually the recognised spelling when using it as a boy’s name. May be wrong on this though!

Either way, it’s a lovely name. Have known a few Robyn/Robin’s and they’ve all been cheery, happy people.

I like it

Its one of my faves for a girl but I would spell it Robin. Go for it. I love it either way.

Love it Smile

I think that's lovely. Do you have a middle name picked out?

I like it. I know one aged 7 years old.
