All around the world, Roba (Roba
, روبا
, רובה
) is a common predominantly female, but very seldom boy's given name. The forename Roba is characteristic of Ethiopia, where it is quite a common primarily girly, but scarcely masculine name, Syria, where it is quite a common feminine name, and Lebanon. In absolute terms, it is the most numerous in Ethiopia, Egypt, and Syria. Very seldom, Roba is the last name as well as the forename.
