The genus was circumscribed by Jean-Baptiste Henri Joseph Desmazières in Ann. Sci. Nat. Bot. ser.3, vol.8 on page 177 in 1847.

The genus name of Robergea is in honour of Michel Robert Roberge (1791–1864), who was a French botanist and mycologist. He taught as a teacher at various girls' schools in Caen.{{cite book | last=Burkhardt | first=Lotte | title=Eine Enzyklopädie zu eponymischen Pflanzennamen |trans-title=Encyclopedia of eponymic plant names | publisher=Botanic Garden and Botanical Museum, Freie Universität Berlin | year=2022 | isbn=978-3-946292-41-8 | url=https://doi.org/10.3372/epolist2022|format=pdf |language=German |location=Berlin | doi=10.3372/epolist2022 | s2cid=246307410 |access-date=January 27, 2022}}
