[Opinions] Re: Oliver, Olive, and Olivia.
in reply to a message by Esyllt
I'm sorry if this isn't terribly helpful. It's been a long day and my brain is dumb now.
Until recently I hated Olivia, but now I really like it. However, with something so common I think you really need an unusual or retro middle name, like Olivia Joan / Olivia Frances / Olivia Marguerite / Olivia Johanna.
I've always loved Olive. It can be a bit plain (although in a really cute way, like Jean or Joan), so maybe pair it with a longer middle name? My favorite female Olive name is Olivette. I think it's just so spunky and fun. Plus you could call her Lettie, which I just love.
I love Oliver also. It's very handsome.
