Well she always joked about how her mom would call her Roberta Katherine when she was in trouble, lol. The name Robyn came about to honor her father, Robert, so I suppose K (if it really is just K} could just be like a place holder, or sorts. She has an aunt named Kay so I'm unsure whether to think that Kay is her MN and was in reference to her aunt, or that K. is her MN and could be a more subtle reference to her aunt while also more open for interpretation.... if that makes sense.

I like the Robyn spelling ok. I'm really a bit torn here because I do think that Robyn looks more feminine but every fiber of my being is telling me to dislike the 'y' lol. The spelling of her name is why I have the spelling of my name though, and I actually like it, so I can't really be too opposed :)

As for a K middle name.... Hmmm, there are very few K names I like. I suppose I'd say Robyn Kalista (Kalysta?) but Robyn Kay is a much better fit I think
