Although the singer himself matured decades ago and supposed to be called Roberto, he is primarily known for his pet name.

We met for a photoshoot in Café de Paris in Rome, situated opposite the Excelsior hotel frequented by many celebrities throughout the years. Among its guests was famous actor-comedian Totò, who revealed Robertino to the world.
