Answer 2

Rob, Robbie, Bob, Bobby, Plumb Bob, Bert, Berty, Robert (with a french roe-bare pronunciation), Roe.

Answer 3

Bob, Bobby, Rob, Robby and Bert are the common nicknames for Robert, but there have been Roberts nicknamed Red, Slats, Curly, Catfish and Buck.

"Pete" is usually a nickname for Peter, but not always. General James Longstreet, a confederate soldier, was known as "Old Pete". This is from a biography:

[...] his father, also named James, nicknamed him "Pete" for its meaning of "sturdy and trustworthy,"[...]

(Jesus loved a good pun. He told St. Peter "You are the rock on which I will found my church". St. Peter's name in greek was "Petros", which means "rock". The same root comes out in our "petroglyph").

So, if your Robert is solid as a rock, he might have had that nickname; also if he was slippery as an eel and dishonest as a politician with a $300 haircut. There are lots of bald men nicknamed "Curly" and there have been NFL linebackers nicknamed "Tiny".

Answer 4
