Orly and O names
I encountered a woman named Orly recently. What do you think of it? What are your favorite names beginning with O?

Sorry, Orly makes me think of the airport near Paris. :/ My favorite names starting with O are:
Olive
Odile
Ophélie
Oscar
Don't like it
I like Olivia, Oliver and Odette
I dislike Orly, but I do think that it is more masculine than feminine. It sounds vintage either way. O is not a bad letter for names, but it's not a favorite for names.Oscar
Oswald
Osmond
Olly
Olivia
It's not a letter I enthuse about. Olivia and Oliver are good but not in the same family. Oswald has important memories for me but a sad ending. Odette and Odile are pleasantly balletic but also not to be used together. Oscar ... I couldn't call it a favourite but it's OK.
