Michael Keaton isnt 5´10, 5´8 as much. I dont know where come from that 5´10 bull****.

I thought his mom gave it to him cause he was a young flying graysen and she was like a robin when he was in the air.?.

That's certainly the one they use in the movie - and it feels awkward and unconvincing. Robin is just not an appropriate name for an adult superhero, lol.

I know...for a kid sure! I couldn't find it mentioned in the books, hmm and interesting question on how he got the name! If I find it I'll let everyone know, or whoever posts it thanks ahead.

Some theories. Someones says that he got the name because the bird robin, others because robin hood. Maybe both of them as true.

Most of us old folks remember that the origin of the name Robin from the comics was that Robin hood was a personal hero of Dick Grayson. He chose that as his crime fighting name. It also explains the main design of his costume. the shoes and the tunic which incorporates a lacing. The colors are also representative (though many assume that his tunic is red for a robin redbreast). In the movies, Schumacher decided to change it to the bird.
