Robyn?

[Exogenesis]

Can I please have your thoughts? My DD is a Robyn but, it got slagged off at play group today by a mother who was thinking of using it...

So Whats wrong with Robyn (I love it btw so you can't upset me)

I love it. I've always loved it. What kind of rude woman slags off another child's name in front of the mother anyway

It's a lovely name.

I like it. I wouldn't have chosen it myself but it's a refreshing change from the most popular names that double up.

I would have spelt it Robin though. I'd be worried a girl called Robin might be big, and seem more like a crow!!

Loads of people hate my children's names! ONce I saw somebody do a line of "no !!!" to my son's name, and they had cut and pasted the NO about four hundred times! it was funny!

I'm not sure she knows its DD's name We havn't been for ages and she is a "newbie" It just pissed me off a little but, i'm suffering major PMT sorry tmi

Ment to add we use DD's Nickname Which is Rora so pretty sure she has/had absolutly no idea

Oh that's brilliant. She will be horrified when she realises! Fantastic... And you can be all calm, serene and understanding. Tee hee!

Sorry about your PMT - I'm a maniac when I'm PMT-ing.

Sounds like the barbecue I went to when a pregnant person went into a long rant about how she didn't mind what her baby was going to look like, as long as it wasn't GINGER, because that's just DISGUSTING, then started backpedalling as soon as she noticed my (ginger) DD. People can be so thoughtless, can't they?

I like Robyn - it's the name of one of my best mates. She's always enjoyed being called it, I think, because it's unusual but not outlandish.

My cousin has just had a little Robyn, beautiful name.

at the rude rude women slagging off ginger hair. Roras slightly ginger in the light sort of strawnberry blonde and its lovely

I think Robyn is lovely - as others have said it's unusual but not off the wall.

Robyn and Rora are both LOVELY!

at someone slagging off a hair colour (why??). Robyn is very pretty.

Robyn is lovely. Robin, however, is a boy's name.

I love the name Robyn.

Names always get slagged off,my DD is Darcey and that is called 'chav' on a thread on here.Hurtful but would be worse if I heard it in real life at a playgroup.

Good for you that you took it on the chin - Robyn is cute name, nothing wrong with it at all!
