Re: Olivine
in reply to a message by Ismene
I think it could work. A lot of uncommon gemstone/mineral names seem sort of trashy to me, but not Olivine. It feels a little quaint, like a name written in faded copperplate script in an old family bible. I like it.
Olivine would be cute for someone born in August, given that the birthstone (peridot) is the the most precious form of olivine. I'm always looking for ways to honor my August-born mom, so I'm putting Olivine on my own middles list. The more I think about it, the more I like it. Thanks for the find! :)
