Olivia or Ivy? (DD3)

Sister to Autumn and Violet. What goes better? Olivia or Ivy? I think Olivia, but that's because they'll all be 6 letters/go up in syllables (2, 3 and 4!) Grin

I like Olivia, I know of none (my children range from 14 - 2) Ivy is very popular where I am in the younger age bracket.

Ivy is quite trendy at the moment so I bet that it will be more likely that there is another Ivy in your child's class than Olivia. I do think Ivy goes really well with your other names.

Ivy; love it I was set to give it to DD, but my mum had such a violent reaction to it, it put me off. Still love it though.

Ivy.

If you're looking for six letters, have you considered Willow? Pretty, and still fits with your nature theme.

Olivia but I am biased Smile

I love Ivy & have never met a child called Ivy in my life.

Olivia however is everywhere. In DD's class alone there are 3.

With your other names, Ivy.

I like ivy best, it has a nice sound. They are both nice names though. I think you have to consider whether you want a nature theme or not because Olivia is less obviously "nature-y". I don't think them all having nature names is a problem but people might comment I suppose - I don't know if that would bother you?

Ivy is lovely
