Robert Kirk may refer to:
Kirk is a Scottish word meaning a church, or more specifically, the Church of Scotland. Many place names and personal names are derived from it.
As a common noun, kirk (meaning 'church') is found in Scots, Scottish English and some English dialects, attested as a noun from the 14th century onwards, but as an element in placenames much earlier. Both words, kirk and church, derive from the Koine Greek κυριακόν (δωμα) (kyriakon (dōma)) meaning Lord's (house), which was borrowed into the Germanic languages in late antiquity, possibly in the course of the Gothic missions. (Only a connection with the idiosyncrasies of Gothic explains how a Greek neuter noun became a Germanic feminine.) Whereas church displays Old English palatalisation, kirk is a loanword from Old Norse and thus has the original mainland Germanic consonants. Compare cognates: Icelandic & Faroese kirkja; Swedish kyrka; Norwegian (Nynorsk) kyrkje; Norwegian (Bokmål) & Danish kirke; German Kirche (reflecting palatalization before unstressed front vowel); Dutch kerk; West Frisian tsjerke; and borrowed into non-Germanic languages: Estonian kirik and Finnish kirkko.
The name Robert is a Germanic given name, from Proto-Germanic *χrōþi- "fame" and *berχta- "bright". Compare Old Dutch Robrecht and Old High German Hrodebert (a compound of hruod "fame, glory" and berht "bright"). It is also in use as a surname.
After becoming widely used in Continental Europe it entered England in its Old French form Robert, where an Old English cognate form (Hrēodbēorht, Hrodberht, Hrēodbēorð, Hrœdbœrð, Hrœdberð) had existed before the Norman Conquest. The feminine version is Roberta. The Italian, Portuguese, and Spanish form is Roberto.
Similar to the name, Richard, "Robert" is also a common name in many Germanic languages, including English, German, Dutch, Norwegian, Swedish, Danish, and Icelandic. It can be used as a French, Hungarian, Finnish, and Estonian name as well.
Robert, and also the name Joseph, were in the top 10 most given boys' names in the US for 47 years, from 1925 to 1972.
In Italy during the Second World War, the form of the name, Roberto, briefly acquired a new meaning derived from, and referring to the Rome-Berlin-Tokyo Axis.

Il reverendo Robert Kirk, pastore di Aberfoyle nelle Highlands scozzesi, era un uomo conosciuto e ben voluto da tutta la comunità e tutti ne avevano un tale rispetto da seguirlo spesso nelle sue passeggiate nei boschi e sulla collina poco distante, dalla quale l’uomo era solito ammirare il tramonto prima di andare a letto.

LOOSELY based on the true story of the Reverend Robert Kirk of Aberfoyle, a scholar and minister of religion, who believed in the Secret Commonwealth of Elves and Faeries. Our film shows how passionately he wanted his wife to also believe, and the drastic action he took to fulfill this mission. Set in the 17th Century, and filmed in the beautiful locations of Loch Lomond, Ardyll Woods Cashel Forest Rowardennan, and Culross conservation village in Fife. This romantic and mystical tale will please audiences of all ages.
Vídeo en que hago una introducción al libro "La Comunidad Secreta" (The Secret Commonwealth) de Robert Kirk, un tratado de finales del siglo XVII sobre las creencias mágicas de los escoceses. El libro se centra en los llamados fairies, seres que habitan el mundo subterráneo, y los videntes, personas dotadas de la Segunda Vista, la capacidad de ver a estos seres y tener premoniciones. Uno de los libros más importantes jamás escritos sobre el tema. Este vídeo es el primero de cuatro sobre esta obra y continúa en "La Comunidad Secreta" - 2ª Parte Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/julia.ponsmontoro.3 Twitter: https://twitter.com/JuliaPonsMontor www.memoriasdelotrolado.com - Mi saga de fantasía: "Memorias del Otro Lado" DISPONIBLE EN AMAZON para Kindle y en papel.
