[Opinions] Re: Raven and Robin
in reply to a message by Perrine
I prefer Robin. Robin is one of the only unisex names I love. I would gladly use it for either a boy or a girl, but I do prefer it for a boy. It makes me think of Robin Hood and Dick Grayson. It's very heroic. The bird is beautiful too. I love their little blue eggs.
Robyn is silly to me because Robin is such a common word. I would automatically spell it Robin without even thinking about it. It reminds me of people who use Grayce instead of Grace. Your child is forever going to be Robyn with a y or Grayce with a y.
Robin is still relatively common here (although it was never particularly popular). Raven feels like a name that hippies and teen moms use. It's very strange and feels like a celebrity or fantasy name. I don't feel like either name is particularly dated.
