Olive

[Mumblyboo]

I love.. What do you think? Sum it up in three words please .... :)

Popeyes wife hmm

It's also food

But nicer than Olivia

Sorry more than three

Haha! DH will be so happy! He predicted an Olive comeback 17 years ago when we considered Olivia and I said that would never happen. I won't tell him though. I do hate him being right.

It's cute. I like it

I love it!

strong, individual, quirky

I love it. And would use it, except it's awful with DP's surname Brown.

ooh i really like all the three (and more) word associations. I do love it, DH not so sure but its the number one contender and i have a lovely, v girly middle name to put with it to 'pretty' it up....

Quirky, strong yet cute.

Very cute and different (in good way)

It's a food.

Oily, herby, salty olive! I'm honestly surprised that some of you find that 'cute' !?

Olivia, on the other hand, is lovely. Also sounds good in other languages, but try saying Olive in French or German .

My nan's name
Popular with hipsters

David Tennant/Georgia Moffet's daughter.

I also much prefer Olivia.

On the Buses............."Arfur Arfur!!"

Olivia is lovely

Olive is not

My DMiL was Olive .

Ugly austerity ridden all joy And colour sucked outof life. Sorry, but you did ask. Three words were not enough.

Love it- it was on my list :)

I used to love it but have gone off it of late. I think the overuse of Olivia and Oliver make it a bit blah.

No and no.

Not a good name for an adult either.

on the buses

DH suggested this for DD. I really dislike it, it is a very harsh, matronly, middle aged name imo.

Never understood why, when there were so many lovely names to choose from, DMiL's parents plumped for Olive. She was a lovely lady, but it just made me think of olive green. Why would you?
