In Spain and Latin America it's a surname. Never heard anyone use this as a first name. In Spanish it's pronounced row-bine-ah.
Allegedly also occasionally used in Hungarian: https://hu.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roberta -- mention it as the feminine form of Robin
This was also commonly used in Scotland, following the Scottish trend of adding -ina to feminize male names, e. G. Jamesina, Dolina, Lachina. If you search the IGI, the vast majority of Robina's are Scottish, not English. [noted -ed]
