Robert means "bright fame", derived from the Germanic elements hrod (fame) and beraht (bright). The Normans introduced this name to Britain. It belonged to three kings of Scotland, including Robert the Bruce who restored the independence of Scotland from England in the 14th century. The author Robert Browning and poets Robert Burns and Robert Frost are famous literary bearers of this name. Also, Robert E. Lee was the commander of the Confederate States Army during the American Civil War.
The name may be shortened to the nicknames Robby/Robbie/Rabbie (in Scotland), Bob/Bobby, Rob, Rab, or Bert.
