Oliver has been growing on me lately, what do you think of it? Does it sound okay with any of these names? (B) Tristan, Julian, Finley/Finian, Maxwell, Alistair and (G) Lorelei, Lindsey, Connolly, Winter? Thanks!

I love Oliver, and I love the boys' names, plus I think they sound great together. But other than Lorelei, I don't care for the 'girl' names and don't think they "go" with Oliver, either. :-/

It's too Oliver Twist for me, but it's OK.

I think it sounds good with Julian, Finley, Maxwell, Alistair, Lorelei, and Connolly.

I really like this name, it's nice. I think it fits well with Julian, Finley and Maxwell. To be honest, I don't like any of the girl names with it.

I like Oliver and think it sounds good with those other boy names, but I don't like it with the girl names (too many l's - maybe Winter's okay).

Oliver is a terrific. It works beautifully with Tristan, Julian, Alistair, Lorelei and Winter. Solid classics that will wear well.

Finley / Finnian, Maxwell, Lindsey and Connolly don't really fit, to me. They have more of a trendy, here-today-gone-tomorrow quality to them.

I love the name Oliver! I think it's classic with a modern twist. That sounded weird but whatever. Oliver and Julien sounds like a good combo so does Oliver and Lindsey. I don't think Oliver and Lorelei go together good at all.
