I can't remember where/when I first heard this name, but it ended up on my personal list somehow. I think it's cute, and would work for a boy of any age. Not my absolute favorite, but a good name.

Brfxxccxxmnpcccclllmmnprxvclmnckssqlbb11116 is the proper spelling.

Another way of spelling it is “Brfxxccxxmnpcccclllmmnprxvclmnsckssqlbb1116”, apparently.

Albin is a nice name when it is spelled like that. However, if you try to spell it the way that Swedish couple tried to spell it (Brfxxccxxmnpcccclllmmnprxvclmnckssqlbb11116), it would aggravate him because he would have to take an hour to write his own name. Albin is much better than Brfxxccxxmnpcccclllmmnprxvclmnckssqlbb11116.

In southern India, particularly in Kerala, the name “ALBIN” as a given name is a common name especially in Christian families. Despite the origin of the name from Europe, I would presume that British colonization accounted for spreading this ‘given name’ in this area. Although it is popular as a given name, you could never find it as surname unless or until my generation give rise to offsprings. •Albin Joseph.

In Sweden the name Albin spelled as "Brfxxccxxmnpcccclllmmnprxvclmnsckssqlbb1116" was banned.

Albin is also used in France (along with Aubin), both as a given name and as a patronymic surname. [noted -ed]
As a patronymic surname, Aubin is more common in France than Albin, which appears to indicate that the given name Aubin has historically been more in use in France than Albin (especially during the Middle Ages). But as a given name, Albin is more common than Aubin, or at least has been since the 20th century.
