[Opinions] Re: BA
in reply to a message by ari.
Oliwia actually makes Olivia more interesting for me! I feel like Helena kinda loses out in this situation. But that's just me. Hmm what would I choose as a sister to an Oliwia...Aleksandra?
Anastazja, now we're getting somewhere
Urszula oooh wow I never thought of putting Ursula and Olivia together but they are wonderful
Krystyna! I adore this Polish name, it's so overdramatic.Anyways, that was fun. They are both nice names, congrats to her.

Ooh, thanks for these suggestions!
Aleksandra probably wouldn't work with Oliwia, since it's inevitably nicknamed Ola, which is rather too similar.
Anastazja could work, it's very dramatic. It was the name of a Ukrainian classmate of mine back in middle school.
Urszula sounds very serious and solemn to me compared to Oliwia, which is seen almost exclusively on under-25s. Ula is sweet, though.
To be honest, I don't really like Krystyna. It's considered dated, and I only know one under 40. She goes by Krysia, which, unfortunately, is also an inevitable nickname here. It's pronounced KRI-sha, which I thinks sounds thoroughly unpleasant.

Wow, Krysia is fantastic! It's so....crunchy.
