To think the name Bobbie

[customerservicenightmare]

is cute and would be nice if my friend had a boy or a girl in the Spring?

Bobbies were pooswhere I grew up (Thames valley). If I wanted to use Bobbie I'd make sure the child has a full name (Robyn, Roberta) to offer more options later on.

I like Bobbie or Robyn shortened but I really don't like Roberta, I don't know why, probably a generation thing.

As a nickname for a child it is fine but it doesn't work for a 63 year old overweight person with grey hair. A name has to be suitable for life.

Is your friend Meghan?

I don’t like it.

I work with a Bobbie. She's lovely and it doesn't seem to have done her career any harm.

Bobbie on Marvel agents of shield is short for Barbara

My dd is Bobbie, short for Roberta. Family and friends use Bobbie, but she’s mostly Roberta at school.

And it’s all because of the Railway Children 😁

Got Janis Joplin singing Bobby McGee stuck in my head now. Quite like it. Especially for a girl. I like unisex names for girls. (If it was me, I'd be thinking about Frankie, Stevie, Riley & Dylan too).

A friend has recently had a baby girl, called Bobbie. She's gorgeous, as is the name.

Horrible name - make me think of poo!
