Olive Oyl?

Ick. If it's short for Olivia, great. If not, ouch. Kind of cute now, but she won't stay 4 forever :)

That was my great-great-grandmother's name & while I think it was great back in the early 1900's.. notsomuch now. My great-grandmother actually mentioned to my mother that she should name me after her.. I love a family name and all.. but I'm glad my mom chose something else. To me, Olive reminds me of two things: Olive Oil from Popeye, and obviously the food.. I guess it's not awful, but Olivia is so much prettier, especially for when the person is a small child.

I personally know at least 3 Olives, all in their mid-late 20s.

I guess it's not the worst thing ever, but I do think Olivia is nicer.

I don't think I'd use it, but I kind of like it. A lot of names from that era have come back, so why not this one?

I don't like it because I don't like olives.
