Any takers? Any know any under 3s?

Would you choose it ahead of Octavia?

Which other nice O names for girls are out there?

Ondine
Onnalee - I know one named after Puff the Magic Dragin
Olga (not sure this one is nice)..!

Also how is Mair - pronounced? Just been reading about a girl called Mair. Is it mare like the horse? Or as in nightmare? . Thanks.

Whilst Ophelia is lovely, it does have negative connotations (drowning etc).

Orla - Irish name.
Olive
err - can't think of any more!
