HelpRe: Olivia
in reply to a message by Pamela
Not being American, I can't predict its popularity. I haven't noticed an outbreak of Olivia people in South Africa, though I've known a few of asssorted ages.
I like Olivia very much. Twelfth Night is one of my favourite plays, which helps. I also had a distant relative, born in the very early 1900s, whose name was Olivia; this showed considerable originality on the part of her parents, but she was always known as Olive, nn Ollie, which I don't enjoy at all. I think she missed a wonderful opportunity to be really distinctive.
