Robert Smith

Robert Smith is a proper name borne by many people.

The most culturally prominent is the English musician (born 1959) who founded and fronts the rock band the Cure, known for his distinctive appearance—smeared lipstick, wild black hair, pale face—which became iconic of gothic rock aesthetics.

The name is otherwise unremarkable, combining two of the most common English given and surnames.
