Hi!

I posted earlier this week a list of names and questions blah blah blah (sorry if you answered before, this may just be a repeat for you)

Basically just wanted further opinions on the name Robin.

It's (surprisingly to me) risen the ranks to become one of my favourite names.

I like it for a boy, but currently know no male Robin's (except, of course, Robin Williams RIP) but 3 female Robyn's my age and another 2 under 2.

So what do you think? Would you see it as a boy or girl name? It it too 'wet' of a name?

I like it as Robyn for a girl but not as a boys name.

It’s great for a boy. I have met a couple under 10, so it’s fairly unusual now but not too much so. I really like it.

I think Robin is a great name.
