I like it.

silverliningsa · 26/10/2018 16:41

Love it!

ThanksItHasPockets · 26/10/2018 16:54

Love it too. It was on the list for DS Smile

Smile19 · 26/10/2018 16:56

I have one. So obviously love it. Not met another one (lots of girls though - so if that bothers you, maybe rethink). He gets called Robbie / Rob too which is a nice nickname.

Jakethecob · 26/10/2018 17:46

Perfect

moredoll · 26/10/2018 17:47

I like it.

TatianaLarina · 26/10/2018 19:58

It’s mainly a girl’s name and a wet one at that.

Prefer Robert or Roman.

Pollymadcatwoman · 26/10/2018 20:07

Love it !

Bear2014 · 26/10/2018 20:08

Yes 👍

Narya · 26/10/2018 20:10

I love it - can be shortened to Rob as well when older. It was on my boys name list.

BroomOnTheRoom · 26/10/2018 20:11

Love it.

GlassOuijan · 26/10/2018 20:12

I disagree that it's mainly a girls' name. Girls called Robin were unheard of in this country until not long ago. That's an American import.
Robin has been traditionally a boy's name here, often a diminutive for Robert.

I like it!

ThroughThickAndThin01 · 26/10/2018 20:12

It’s fine, although prefer Robert.

GeorgieTheGorgeousGoat · 26/10/2018 20:12

Nooooo it’s so wet and feeble.

Lipsticktraces · 26/10/2018 20:17

Wetter than a wet thing. Makes me think of Sweet Robin from Game Of Thrones.

TatianaLarina · 26/10/2018 20:18

Or Cwistopher Wobin.

TheDowagerCuntess · 26/10/2018 20:18

It's lovely!

greendale17 · 26/10/2018 20:20

It is a bit wet. Not a strong name.

GlassOuijan · 26/10/2018 20:27

Despite watching every episode of GOT I have no idea who Sweet Robin is🤔

GlassOuijan · 26/10/2018 20:28

Oh yes, him.

Not a good ambassador for the name!

GlassOuijan · 26/10/2018 20:31

Robin Hood! 😍

Love it

LynetteScavo · 26/10/2018 20:45

I dint like it based in the Robins I've known.

Sine I e in RL did mention to me that it's "wet" which I can see, but wouldn't be my reason for not using it.

They'd probably be Rob/Robbie by high school age.

MerlinsBeard87 · 26/10/2018 21:05

I have one. Love it!

WaitroseCoffeeCostaCup · 26/10/2018 21:38

I'm not sure I think of it as a 'strong' name for a boy. If you love it it doesn't matter what anyone else thinks though!
