A greeny colour.

Which is not to say I don't like it

Cranny chic, adoreable, uncommon

Runrogrogrun · 13/08/2013 23:15

My gran. Upstanding, admired and much respected. Think Isla Fisher has an Olive. Go for it

TeddyPickleStick · 13/08/2013 23:15

Dull boring insipid

Onesleeptillwembley · 13/08/2013 23:16

Truly fucking awful

on the buses.

ozymandiusking · 13/08/2013 23:20

You are joking !

monniemae · 13/08/2013 23:21

Don't love it though I know two toddlers called it.. however watched Little Miss Sunshine again other day and remembered the ace girl in that is an Olive. Which made me dislike it less!

scrumpkin · 13/08/2013 23:25

I love the name. If I were to have another dd she would be Olive!

smother · 13/08/2013 23:25

Increasingly popular but lovely (sorry that was four words)

shoobidoo · 13/08/2013 23:27

Greasy, oily, wrinkly and black!

WilmaFingerdoo · 13/08/2013 23:28

Very very blah

Popeye's missus friend.

Green and salty

PilgrimSoul · 13/08/2013 23:34

Lovely, strong, gutsy.

MortifiedAdams · 13/08/2013 23:34

It is my top name for this next baby if she is a She. I already have a Meg.
