DD is currently reading The Railway Children (E.Nesbit) and one of the main characters is Bobbie (Roberta). I love it.

lovely - and of course, her first word won't be "Mama" but "daddy, oh my daddy" Grin

I love it, but would use Bertie/Berta as a nn.

Not keen on Roberta tbh

Friend is Roberta (she is italian), and gets Robbie, which she suits.

Roberta is very elegant. Prefer Bertie rather than Bobby as a nn though

Aeldredida · 13/08/2010 16:15

I like it a lot!
