Scott or Robert - do you know any?

[JimbosJetSet]

They are the 2 top names on our list at the moment, but I'm unsure about both of them because of the associations I have with the names - Roberts can be a bit wimpy IME and Scott (which I like, but I'm more unsure of because I don't know any under the age of 35) is a bit harsh... May have a tendency to be a bully... Simon is the other choice but I'm not sure about that one either!

The only Scott I know is about 40 and is rather sophisticated, quiet and intelligent.

The only Robert I know is my 20 yo nephew. He is Rob no, but was Bertie as a child.

I know lots of Roberts. 2 of which hate being called Robert. One is rob the other bob.

I used to know a few Scott's at school. And I really like the name Simon.

Simon is also my bosses name.

I know tons of Roberts, in fact my DH, ex, Dad, boss and assistant are all called Robert, all go by Bob, Rob, Robbie, Bobbie (or Dad!) so easy to tell them apart. They are all very nice.
Another ex is called Scott (I don't have hundreds of ex's promise!) and I always thought the name was very cool

My DS2 is a Robert. Named after Robert The Bruce - not at all wimpy!

Don't love Scott as a name but I am Scottish so would seem a bit odd I think.

Have only heard of a few child Roberts. It's a classic name that's there's not going to be 4 in every class.

I went to school with a Robert Scott. He was a perfectly nice kid!

My first love was a Scott, so I love the name, and my favourite uncle and ds's Grandad is a Robert, so I gave it to ds as a middle name. I think they are both strong names, not at all wimpy.

Simon is a wimpy/geeky name to me.

I know one Robert very well - my dh!

Its a nice name imo. Lots of nn's - Robbie, Bob, Bobby, Bert, Bertie etc.. timeless name also.

I don't know any Scotts so if you are wanting a more unusual name I'd go for that one.

Oh Bob Scott, I think I've met him!

I do, I know a Scott of 12 and a Robert aged four. I like Robbie. Think it's weird there are so many harrys,Tobys,Jamies and charlies and no Robbies.

I have a 3yr Robert and is no way wimpy, more thugish.

And I know a 7yr Scott.

I know lots of Roberts, Robs, Robbies. They are all lovely.

The only Scott I know is 29 yo. He's lovely though, and very handsome.

Also, know lots of lovely Simons.

I like all your names.

I know a 30yo and 39yo Scott; I know a 36yo and a 46yo Robert (I know a 2yo officially named Robbie).

I love the name Robert because the NNs Rob and Robbie/Robby are so strong and masculine. Out of the two, that's what I'd pick - although Scott is v.nice.

I know a 17 yo Scott and one who is mid 40s, and a Robert who is 1 plus a lot of older ones of many different generations, all with different nns.

Simon -- one in DD4's class, age 11.

I know two called Scott both over 30 . Quite a few Roberts again over 30 all known as Rob and one five year old Robert known as robbie.

My Scott is as far away from a bully as you can get, he is also very handsome and wonderful.

I am not a fan of the name Robert, the only one I knew was a horrific egomaniac.

I have a Robert, he's nearly four. As for being wimpy, yes he is a little bit. (I'm a bad mother for saying that!)

I'm mid 30's and know lots of Rob's, Scott's and Simon's my age.

I don't really associate any personality types to the names probably because I know so many and they are all different, my preference in order is Simon, Robert then Scott.

I know a Scott who is 25. He is truly gorgeous. Lovely man.

yes.

One Rob who is lovely but a Bob (the knob as we call him) not so lovely.
One Scott who is a little bully and had put me off the name now.

Two scotts (21 and 25?) Both get called scotty socially. Also a rob and a bobby. Sorry about spelling/ grammar, bloody phone. If it helps bobby sounds a bit ancient to me.

Know lots of adult with all three of these names - I love Scott, not so keen on Robert and really do not like Simon

Go with Simon, I love that name, its so underused these days

I don't know any, children or adults.
