Robbin is English in Origin.
Robbin is a variant spelling of Robin, a medieval French diminutive of Robert. Robert entered English with the Normans and derives from Old High German Hrodberht (hrod "fame, renown" + beraht "bright"), yielding the meaning "bright fame." Through English folklore and later conflation with the red-breasted songbird, Robin accrued buoyant, nature-tinged associations, which carry over to Robbin while preserving the original Germanic sense.
Historically borne by men in medieval England (think Robin Hood), the name broadened to unisex use in the 20th century, especially in North America and Britain. The double-b form Robbin appears in English, Dutch, and Scandinavian usage, often chosen to distinguish the personal name from the bird, and tends to skew masculine. Common short forms include Rob and Robbie/Robby. Close variants are Robin (standard), Robyn (often feminine), and the rarer Robbyn; related names from the same root include Robert, Roberta, Roberto, Rupert, and Robert (variously accented).
