How many Olivias do you know?

[OliviaOllyLivvy]

Thank you!

Lots! One of my favourite names but far too many of them.

Quite a few, from Reception to Year 8... Cambridgeshire. I only really like 1 of the many I know...

One, age something like 14 months old. It's a nice name I think

I work in a secondary school. 50% of the kids are called Olivia. The other 50% are boys.
It's a bit less popular amongst the younger age group but still very common.

3, one in her 30s
One aged 5
One aged 3

4

Lots and lots!

It's just overtaken Olivia as the most popular girls' name in England and Wales in 2016. I think it's safe to say that it's going nowhere!

Oops, I meant that Olivia's overtaken Amelia.

I'm sure it used to be Nr 1 a few years ago already..! So there will be loads of them!

I wouldn't worry too much about it being No.1
Names are popular in different regions.

Im in the east and there's hardly any that I know.
Loads of Amelias though.

Two - aged 7 & 4 (both lovely!)

Personally I know none , but do know an Olive (late 50's ) .Dd knows one . Neither know any Amelia 's
I suppose it depends where you live .
Was surprised to see adult son's name in top 50. But then I called that because I liked it and still do .

Names are more diverse too so whilst say 20 years ago 20000 babies were called the top name each year, now it is more like 5000 as there's almost twice as many names being used by parents nowadays. So whilst there might have been 2 Emma's in each class 20 years ago now you might only get 1 Olivia in each school year.

It's like calling your child Sarah or Claire in the mid 70s

Or not, as I've just explained Kerala

Still pretty dull though. So many names why do people insist on using the same ones?

Approx 1.2 billion.

Nine, two Olives, and an Alivia.

All between 1-10yo, except one Olive who is in her 80s.

Two. One is a lovely 21 year old & the other is OliviaMumsnet.

Only one my 20 year old DD... I work in a school and there are none at the moment

Lots. It is a lovely name though!

One who I kind of know (friend of a friend) in her 30s. My daughter's 13 and can't say I've met any throughout her school years to date. Yet it's right at the top for popular girls names.

6 Olivia's

I know of one... never met her. Lovely name!
