Probably from Scandinavia, where people take their father's name and add son or daughter. For instance, Peterson, Jakobson, and so on.
Very possible, but it can't go unnoticed that Roberts (short for Robertson) is very prevalent in Wales which is Celtic.
Another Answer:I would think it would be English or Scottish.
The Scots even have a Gaelic form of the name: Robasdan. They are called "Na Robasdanaich",as well as "Clann 'IcDhonnchaidh" and "Clann Donnchaidh".
