First name meaning for Robert

The name Robert is of Germanic origin, derived from the Old High German name "Hrodebert," which combines the elements "hrod," meaning "fame," and "beraht," meaning "bright."

It became popular among the Normans after the Norman Conquest of England in 1066 and subsequently spread throughout Europe, particularly in England, France, and Scotland

Scottish and Irish: variant of Irvine 1 and English: from the Middle English personal name Everwin Erwin perhaps from Old English Eoforwine (eofor ‘boar’ + wine ‘friend’) but mostly from an Old French form of the cognate ancient Germanic name Everwin or from a different ancient Germanic name Herewin with loss of initial H- (first element hari heri ‘army’)
