Sofia and Olive?

[ForeveronEtsy]

What do you think of Olive as sibling for Sofia?

I’m really warming to it...just need to convince dp!
And think of a boys name....
Due in 6 weeks

Vivienne
Lilian
Edith
Anna
Luisa/ Louisa

I wouldn't worry about an Italian name, loads of Italian names are well integrated into British culture now, especially girls names.

Love!

Lovely ☺️

Sofia is lovely and quite graceful. To me, Olive is the exact opposite, very lumpen and an unattractive sound. They're very different.

That's how I feel! I'd feel hard done by if my name was Olive and my sister had a sophisticated name like Sophia.

I don't like Olive, sounds very hard and I think Olivia goes much more nicely with Sophia.

Back to the drawing board! Might use it for a middle name.
What do you think of Lucas if a boy?

I love it, way cooler than Olivia. Just asked DD's 11 and 8 who Popeye is and they haven't a clue so don't think the association will be an issue by the time she's at school

I like Lucas and sounds good with Sofia. Have you had a username fail? @AlwaysonEtsy

My dd is an Olive and she constantly gets complimented on her name.

@Violetlavenders

Olive 🫒 is an oily green vegetable.

I'm really not keen.

🤣 Sorry, that made me laugh. I don’t mind Olivia, I’m not a fan of Olive - I think of Popeye too. Sorry OP!

I'm pregnant atm and if I have a girl I reallt want to call her Olive it's such a beautiful name

I'd be sad if I was the one called Olive and my sister got such a good name.

I don't like it but Olivia would be nice with Sofia.

I love Olive, but as others have said it's a very different style to Sofia and doesn't really go. Olivia goes better, but it's very popular.

Olive is one of my favorite girl names!!! So so adorable!!!

We would have used it except our surname is Brown...Olive Brown sounds like a crayon color 😂

Not keen either sorry. Prefer something more elegant sounding. What about Elena/Eleanor or Luna?

Love Olive! Think it's great with Sofia

How about Ottilie? Jemima? Delilah? Clementine? Cara?

For a boy what about Otis?

I like Olive very much but it is very different to Sofia. Though that shouldn't be a problem if you like it. There's no rule that names have to 'match'.

Other girls names that you might like:
Louisa
Lucia
Marianne
Phoebe
Juliet/Julia
Romilly

Boys names:
Jules
Jude
Romeo
Gregory
Rupert
Jeremy
Casper

Does nobody else think of a green olive 🫒?

I like Sofia.

Beautiful

Olive is oily and plain. I don't understand how people can like it as a name. Sorry.

I feel as though it's meant to sound a bit like Iris or Hazel but it doesn't.

Sofia is beautiful but I think Olive is just awful.They do not go together at all and as the above poster already said Olive is going to feel very hard done by.Olivia would be a better choice.

Olive Oil, nothing to do with Popeye is in every supermarket

To go with Sofia I think you need a name that ends with an a

I have twin nieces Sophia and Olivia

Reminds me of on the buses, sorry 🙁
