The name Robert is as popular as ever, as are diminutives Rob, Robbie, and Bob. Bobby, however, is a gender-neutral choice perfect for any little one. More and more often, this name is being chosen entirely independently of its more traditional counterpart. Maybe it’s because of its bouncy, spirited sound, or perhaps thanks to its vibrant and celebratory meaning. Either way, baby Bobby can embrace the simplicity and energetic vibes of their modern name.
