Thoughts on Robin Wilder?

Not pregnant or planning to be anytime in the near future, but I’ve been stuck on [name_u]Robin[/name_u] [name_m]Wilder[/name_m] for a while and I’d love some other opinions.

I think [name_u]Robin[/name_u] is classic, elegant, and dashing on a boy and I love the connection to [name_u]Robin[/name_u] Hood as well as [name_m]Christopher[/name_m] [name_u]Robin[/name_u] and Batman’s [name_u]Robin[/name_u] and even the bird itself. Plus the nickname [name_u]Robbie[/name_u] is absolutely adorable.

[name_m]Wilder[/name_m] is a bit bolder, but still usable if he decides he’d rather not go by [name_u]Robin[/name_u]/[name_u]Robbie[/name_u], and I feel like [name_u]Robin[/name_u] [name_m]Wilder[/name_m] flows well. I also like that it’s a reference to [name_f]Laura[/name_f] Ingalls [name_m]Wilder[/name_m], [name_m]Thornton[/name_m] [name_m]Wilder[/name_m], and—a little more tenuously—[name_m]Oscar[/name_m] Wilde.

I love it :slight_smile: it’s just the right combination of gentle yet strong. I like all the associations too. Very nice choice.

[name_u]Robin[/name_u] [name_m]Wilder[/name_m] is very sweet and it seems to have a lot of meaning to you. I definitely think it’s one to tuck away for the future.

[name_f]Lovely[/name_f], charming and meaningful!

I did just want to mention [name_f]Louise[/name_f] Pentland has a book series about a woman called [name_f]Robyn[/name_f] Wilde. Not sure if that would put you off - it’s not really a bad thing -but I thought I’d mention it in case

I love the name [name_u]Robin[/name_u] [name_m]Wilder[/name_m]. The first thing I thought of when I read it were all of the associations with the name [name_u]Robin[/name_u]. [name_m]Wilder[/name_m] has just been added to my list, although [name_u]Robin[/name_u] has been on my long list for quite some time. Great choice.

Sweet, handsome and meaningful!

[name_u]Robin[/name_u] is so sweet and underused nowadays! It’s probably the [name_m]Christopher[/name_m] [name_u]Robin[/name_u] and bird connections but I think of a boy walking in the woods when I hear it. [name_u]Robbie[/name_u] is so cute too. [name_m]Wilder[/name_m] is really fun in the middle, it makes me think of [name_m]Oscar[/name_m] Wilde!
