feminine · English (Rare) origin
Robynne is an English feminine name and an elaborated spelling variant of Robin, which itself derives from the medieval diminutive of the Germanic name Robert, composed of the elements meaning fame and bright. Robin was historically a masculine name, famously associated with the legendary outlaw Robin Hood, but it gradually came to be used for girls as well over the course of the twentieth century. The spelling Robynne, with its doubled final consonant and substituted y, follows a broader modern trend of creating visually distinctive feminine forms. Closely related forms include Robyn, Robbin, and Robine.
