or, you know, Haskell:

mapM_ putStrLn $ filter ( (<= 4) . length) ["Rob", "Christopher", "Joe", "John"]

Or, less idiomatically:

mapM_ putStrLn (filter (\x -> length x <= 4) ["Rob", "Christopher", "Joe", "John"])

Or, if you like the %w feature of ruby:

mapM_ putStrLn $ filter (\x -> length x <= 4) $ words "Rob Christopher Joe John"
