Christopher Robin Milne (21 August
1920–1996) was an English author and bookseller and the only child of author A. A. Milne. As a child, he was the basis of the character Christopher Robin in his father's Winnie-the-Pooh stories and in two books
of poems. Milne's father
explained that "Rosemary" was the intended name of their firstborn
child, if it was a girl. Realizing that
it was going to be a boy, he decided on "Billy", but without the
intention of actually christening him William. Instead, each parent chose a name; hence his
legal name was Christopher Robin. Within the family, he was referred to as
"Billy Moon", a combination of his nickname and his childhood
mispronunciation of Milne. From
1929 onwards, he would simply be referred to as Christopher, and he later
stated that it was "the only name I feel to be really mine."
