Robyn?

This is still hypothetical but the name came to me out of nowhere and now I can't stop considering it for any future DD2...

DD1 has a traditional 'A' name and is always known by the unisex diminutive. Would a second unisex name be overkill? The surname also begins with B which might not flow.

What do people think?

I love it and think they make a lovely pair of names. I considered Robyn for DD but unfortunately our surname would give her the same name as a hirsute comedy actor who was particularly active in the 80s & 90s...

MrBlonde, that was my worry because it could look like we've made deliberate effort to come up with unisex names! Especially as we're not planning on getting married blah blah, people might think I'm make some sort of feminist/gender-neutral statement Grin
