[Opinions] Re: Raven and Robin
in reply to a message by Perrine
Raven is a great name. I am a huge fan of Edgar Allan Poe, so "The Raven" always comes to mind. Also it reminds me of Raven from Teen Titans, which is also a show that I love. Although it may seem a bit nineties, I think it made a comeback in the early 2000s, because I know three Ravens my age. They are all girls, so I see this as a feminine name.
I LOVE the name Robin. This is one of my most favorite names and I would definitely use it some day. I love ravens, but robins will always have a special place in my heart as one of my favorite songbirds, alongside cardinals. While this is a fine name on boys, I would personally use this on a girl since it always had a more feminine connection with me. I'm not too fond of the spelling Robyn though, as it kind of takes away the bird association to me and is an unnecessary feminine element added with the "y". The fact that it was popular in the sixties and seventies doesn't bother me at all, as I actually adore and tend to gravitate to more classic, vintage names.
