Maya or Robin?

[Janoschi]

One week to go and we were dead-set on Robin for our daughter.... except I'm having a wobble and have put Maya back on the list...

I know Maya is really popular at the moment but it's the name of a very brave, very sweet friend of ours who lives in Japan and is having an appalling time struggling with the recent horrific events.....

The name Robin has no background - we just love it.

What do you think?

definitely Maya, so much prettier. Don't like the unisex aspect of Robin

Do like the idea of a little girl called Bob..... Thanks for that one RobynLou!

Maya (the my-a version not the may-a one)

I'd think Robin was a boy. Do you like Robyn?

Yes I do, but there are reasons for wanting the bird... I know it sounds silly without giving the reason, but it's important to us... Her middle name would be feminine so she could have a choice if a unisex name bothered her later. I know a female Andy, Peta, Sam and Georgie though so maybe it won't be a problem. We're not a very frilly-girly family to be honest - we're a trials biking and den-building bunch.

Robin is ok. Maya is very pretty.

I like the girls name Robyn (with a y, I always think the y for girls, and i for boys).

I know a very lovely lady called Robyn.

it's probably me oohlaalaa, I'm utterly lovely at all times
