Robyn

[remember1]

I'm currently 30 weeks pregnant with a baby girl and am struggling to decide on a name. One of the very few names we agree on is Robyn.
I like it as it is not too common but is not so unusual that it's hard to spell/pronounce. Just really looking for peoples opinions on the name and if I need to go back to the drawing board.

I like it. I know one aged 7 years old.

I think that's lovely. Do you have a middle name picked out?

Love it

Its one of my faves for a girl but I would spell it Robin. Go for it. I love it either way.

I like it

@veeboo I think Robin is usually the recognised spelling when using it as a boy’s name. May be wrong on this though!

Either way, it’s a lovely name. Have known a few Robyn/Robin’s and they’ve all been cheery, happy people.

I really like it. I only know one Robyn, she's around 16/17 and gorgeous. It's a beautiful name , girly but different ! In a good way

Love it. Would have been in the running for us if an acquaintance didn’t have it already xx

GinAfterBedtime not picked a middle name yet as been so stuck for a first name! My DD (11) isn't keen on the name which made me doubt myself but the positive replies have been reassuring.

I love the name Robyn. I have a friend named Robyn and we are expecting DS2 and are considering Robin for his middle name.

I like it. I know one girl Robyn and one boy Robin.

It's one of my favourite names. Sadly doesn't work with either mine or DP's surname.

I don't like it. Robyns are only 60+ year olds in Australia. I would find it very odd on a baby - a bit like Susan or Janet.

I love it. It was in our top 3 for both DD’s. Congratulations op

I love it for a boy or a girl (I'd spell it with an 'i' though). Unfortunately for me DH vetoed it for DS2.

I bloody love it. I know 2 Robyn’s, one 26 and the other 7 both lovely!

Yep, really good name.

I love it too.

Not keen, I see it as a bit of an 80s name.

Like it! Don’t be swayed by your other DD, one day she can (hopefully) choose her own baby names! 😁

I like this name. It is totally underused but is such a lovely name. You're right that it is easy to say and spell, is uncommon but not unusual. I think Robyn could suit any type of person.

I love it! Couldn’t use it as a first name but it is my newborn daughter’s middle name.

I like it. Always liked the unisex names.

It's great.
I also think Robyn - girl, Robin - boy.

I love it but would spell it with an i for a boy or a girl. I think with a y is a misspelling (like Rachael) that has become widespread.
