Some time in the next few years I want to start having children. If I ever have a son I'm going to use the name Robin,however,I haven't decided whether or not it will be the first name or the middle name. Please suggest possible first names and middle names

Having gone through everyone's suggestions I still haven't decided if it's gonna be a 1st or middle name :(. It would depend on what name(based on these suggestions,my and his personal favorites as well as family member's suggestions) I choose to go with it when the time comes for me to have kids. But,I've got time as I have yet to settle down with someone. Although I'm not in a rush,hopefully I'll find someone in the next 5 years.I know Robin isn't as common for a boy here in the US compared to England,so hopefully he'll agree to this name. Or maybe I'll just have to move to England LOL. Thanks for the suggestions

I love Robin for a boy! I think it would need a strong, masculine MN if you do use it in the FN spot. Robin Alexander maybe?

Alexander is too common for my liking but thanks for the suggestion

I love Robin and would gladly use it. My usual combo is Robin Gregor Edward, with all the names honouring.

My cousin Robin is actually Arthur Robin; his parents wanted to name him Robin but since the ln starts with a T they decided on ART instead of RAT as his initials!

I'd use it as a fn and select one or two middles from family and friends.

To me it's strictly masculine, and it's pretty much only used for boys where I live. I like Robin, but I also think it's a tiny bit dated.

Robin Raphael
Robin Oliver
