It reminds me of ovaries!

Rubytinsleslippers · 05/07/2019 08:41

Or Ovine....( Sheep )

Madbengalmum · 05/07/2019 08:42

Too much love island!

ErrolTheDragon · 05/07/2019 08:42

Yes, or ovine.

ErrolTheDragon · 05/07/2019 08:45

Xpost with ruby.

Oval, ovaltine ... I'm not getting 'nice name'.
I've never seen love island, naming your kid because of a show which is on now but presumably not forever seems shortsighted tbh.

Too much love island!

JustTheCrowsAndTheBeef · 05/07/2019 08:59

Ovum, ova, ovary. All very ovate.

Plus it will forever be misheard as Evie.

How about Olive?

Too much Love Island!

bridgetreilly · 05/07/2019 09:22

It's really, really not a good name. Far too many other connotations.

teenmum18 · 05/07/2019 09:26

I like it. Also like dennon too lol

horseymum · 05/07/2019 09:28

Ovi in Romanian is short for Ovidiu, it's a boys name. I don't watch love island but wouldn't want that link for a child!

AverageMummy · 05/07/2019 10:01

Sounds like a nickname for your ovary

Snowy81 · 05/07/2019 10:48

My ovie’s are playing up today.......

GlacindaTheTroll · 05/07/2019 13:22

Ovie on Love Island is a 6ft 7 muscly hunk. I really don't think Olive would work as a substitute!

Refilona · 05/07/2019 13:24

Sounds like ovaries and ovia (the app). Or ovo / huevo / uovo (egg) in Portuguese, Spanish and Italian respectively. It’s a no from me!

Owlbert · 05/07/2019 13:59

My first thought was ovaries as others have said. Would be ok as a nickname

JustTheCrowsAndTheBeef · 05/07/2019 14:07

Sorry! I don’t watch Love Island. I didn’t realise it was a boys’ name Blush

PinkCrayon · 05/07/2019 14:08

I love it

StellarLunar · 05/07/2019 14:10

Sounds like a an app to track fertility

LenoVentura · 05/07/2019 14:11

It's not a name. It's not even a word. No.

MamaFlintstone · 05/07/2019 14:29

I get fertility app vibes from this too.

Katjolo · 05/07/2019 14:30

Cute name

BentBaastard · 05/07/2019 14:30

No

Strawberrymush · 05/07/2019 14:51

Reminds me of sheep 🐑

BiBabbles · 05/07/2019 14:56

I could see Ovie as a nickname for Olive or Olivine, but by itself it does sound kinda sound like a women's health app.
