Wdyt of the name Olga?

For me, it either reminds me of an old person or the restaurant, which doesn't have good food (in my opinion). It's also too harsh sounding. Oddly enough, with all these negatives, I still find it interesting, though not enough to use it.

I always think of Helga's older sister on Hey Arnold.

Best show ever.

LOL me too!

Me too.

And I like the name btw.

The mother of a friend of my cousin is named Olga.
It reminds me of an old German woman.

I went to school with a lot or Russian girls and every other one was named Olga. I want to hate it, but it seems normal to me now.

[cxtxc.livejournal.com]

It sounds and looks ugly to me.

Olga, Tatiana, Maria, Anastasia, Alexei.
..the Romanovs. so yeah, that's all I can picture.

I think of a really tall Swedish woman. I could potentially do my "swedish impression" with that name, which basically consists of me saying, "My name is (insert Swedish name, usually Ingrid), I come from Sveeden." Yeah I'm so bad at accents though, I end up sounding Arab or something.

Oh my gosh, I do that Swedish impression thing too! I usually say, "My name is Helga, I am Sveedish, I like to eat meatballs."

That's so funny. "My name is Olga, I am living here from Sveeden, eferybody knows the Svedes speak in English with acksents."

I see a big fat greasy lady with a giant mole on her chin. Wearing a moo moo.

I've actually been thinking about this name lately because one of my new co-workers is named Olga and an Irish girl in one of my classes. I've never heard it on a real person before besides TV characters. Both those girls are teenagers.

I think of the contortionist Olga from Cirque du Soleil :P

[serdyuchkafan.livejournal.com]

I love it. I think it's such a sweet name. It may be because I'm used to hearing it (I'm Ukrainian.).

i love slavic names, but they don't fair well in the US. people have horrible stereotypes associated with them. so, if you're not in the US, go for it!!

Meh. It sounds cute in theory, but in practice it probably isn't so cute around here, honestly.

[thejoysofjess.livejournal.com]

I know a second grader named Olga. She's from Germany and very sweet, so it's got good connotations for me. It is a little harsh and doesn't lend itself to nicknames, which would bother me.

[blue-suspenders.livejournal.com]

I don't like it at all.

[idrinkacidrain.livejournal.com]

I think Olga sounds lovely and bouncy, but maybe a little too whispery and short for my taste.

[shortbutfast.livejournal.com]

horrible name. makes me think of those old russian olympic athletes that were women but really looked like men. that, or the russian hookers you find golddigging around the silicon valley, lolz.
