Robbey Origin and Meaning

The name Robbey is a girl's name.

Robbey is an uncommon feminine name that appears to be a variant spelling of Robbie or Robby, which are traditionally diminutive forms of Robert or Robin. The name Robert comes from Germanic elements meaning "fame" and "bright," while Robin originated as a medieval nickname for Robert but also refers to the red-breasted bird. This particular spelling with the -ey ending gives it a more distinctive look. While Robbie and Robby are more commonly used for males, Robbey as a feminine form represents the modern trend of gender-crossing names. It remains very rare in usage, making it an unconventional choice for parents seeking something familiar in sound but unique in presentation.
