Same with Robert.

Do you remain Robert?

Become boring Bob?

Rob with one b or Robb with two?

If you're feeling whimsical, is it Robby or Robbie?

And if you're transitioning, you should probably avoid picking the name Margot

Funny enough, Margot is part of a family of names that's even bigger than James and Robert.

Margot, Marjorie, Marge, Greta, Rita, Megan, Maggie, Gretchen, Maisie, Molly, Peggy... The uniting feature is that all of these names are considered variants of "Margaret," and this isn't even a comprehensive list.

Margherita and Margarita are my fav. Both delicious.

Oh wow, that's something! I didn't see most of these coming!

Don't forget Bobby, Boberino, and the unsung classic Bert.

I had a friend with one brother named Bob and another Rob. Neither was named Robert.
