Olivia Francis
Olivia Grace
Olivia-Grace
Olivia Kaida (Japanese)
Olivia Draig (Welsh)

I'm not Japanese but I like the look and sound of Kaida. I'm also not welsh but the father is and I like the idea of a name meaning dragon.

Olivia Grace is the nicest

Goostacean · 22/08/2018 20:19

Francis is, I believe, the male spelling. Female would be Frances. Is that intentional..?

kimlo · 22/08/2018 20:23

Olivia Frances.

DramaAlpaca · 22/08/2018 20:26

Olivia Frances is my favourite.

Please spell it Frances though, as Francis is a boys' name.

BabarKingoftheElephants · 22/08/2018 20:26

Olivia Grace

Goostacean · 22/08/2018 20:26

I like Olivia Draig, actually. It’s meaningful and unusual.

Grace seems to be very popular currently, and Kaida is a bit too “out there” for me! :)

AnyaMoondial · 22/08/2018 20:30

Olivia is very beautiful but it has been the most popular name in the U.K. for some years now. Not that it matters but I mention it just in case you didn’t know.

Olivia Frances is fabulous.

LittleYellowLifejacket · 22/08/2018 20:33

How is Draig pronounced?

Kaida is lovely but doesn't flow well with Olivia at all.

Olivia Grace sounds best I think

AtticaRose · 22/08/2018 20:34

Olivia Frances or Olivia Draig! Latter is a bit braver, but kind of cool.

MikeUniformMike · 22/08/2018 20:38

Olivia Draig would be better as Olivia Ddraig.
DD is said like the th in English words like the, these, other.
AI is like the English word I.

Greeneyedgeek83 · 22/08/2018 20:40

Frances but it is Frances for a female not Francis. Wouldn't use a name that had nothing to do with mine or my partners culture personally

LethalLola · 22/08/2018 20:45

Olivia I think is close to the top, if not number one, of the most commonly used names. So I'd say way too regular and dull. There will be thousands called Olivia this year.

Olivia Frances

IVflytrap · 22/08/2018 20:53

Olivia Frances is my favourite.

Olivia Draig (or Ddraig, as pp suggested) is pretty amazing, though! Is Draig/Ddraig an actual recognised name in Welsh?

Sunflower321 · 22/08/2018 21:09

There must be thousands of girls named Olivia Grace already...both SO popular

kenandbarbie · 22/08/2018 21:22

I only like Olivia Frances

kenandbarbie · 22/08/2018 21:23

I find draig very ugly if it sounds like it is spelled

kenandbarbie · 22/08/2018 21:24

It sounds like drag or drain or a baddy in Star Wars

kenandbarbie · 22/08/2018 21:26

Sorry I feel like I was a bit harsh there, I was taking 'honest' a bit too seriously. Apologies.

ReginaPhalange89 · 22/08/2018 21:35

Both Olivia and Grace are so common. Both lovely names but both very common

Olivia Frances would be nicer , but definitely spell it like Frances not Francis

ReginaPhalange89 · 22/08/2018 21:36

Also Draig/dragon thing just makes me think of Game of Thrones

greendale17 · 22/08/2018 21:41

Olivia Frances

AnElderlyLadyOfMediumHeight · 22/08/2018 21:44

Howabout Frances Olivia? Then she won't be one of three or four Olivias in her class.
Frances is one of my favourite names. Elegant and sophisticated but also simple.

Pompom42 · 22/08/2018 22:05

I work in a Pre School and we have 5 Olivia's and 7 Grace.
If you like it that's all that matters, but it is super popular

buttercup54321 · 22/08/2018 22:19

Olivia Grace
