[Opinions] Olias ?
I was in an Norwegian forum, and a person mentioned the name Olias, instead of the popular Elias. The person wrote that it was an old name used in Norway, but it seems like no one has the name these days.. I like it a lot, because I have always liked Elias, but I am starting to get tired of it because "everyone" seems to use it. Olias even sound better to me. I kind of think about using it as a middlename to a maybe-future-kid because the child will get a norwegian forename that I think would be hard to pronounce in English. The problem is that I have thought that if I got a second boy, I would name him Tobias. And Olias and Tobias are too close to me.. WDYT? About the name Olias? And do you also think it would be weird with brothers with middlename and forename that kind of rhymes perfectly?

Hi !!!I tell the truth...
I dislike it.Well...Elias and other variant aren't so good in my opinion.But Olias is worse because it is similar to the Italian word 'olio' (oil)....So...I'm sorry.Tobias is ok...
I'm quite indifferent about it. It is not good but also not bad.Have you got a boy?? What is his name? Have you got other children? Byeeeeeeeee

No, I do not have any children, haha.. I just love to dream about what they could be named if I had children now. I have done that since I was little. But, then I guess I won't use Olias. I have fell more in love in the name Tobias. I think it is because I read Divergent and got a better taste of the name then.

It sounds like a gross off-brand margarine.
