[Opinions] Re: Teasing potential??
I get what you mean...there's nothing wrong with olives themselves. Well, actually, I can't stand the green ones or the authentic Greek ones. I've loved the canned black ones since I was little, but many kids think olives are just gross. For me, the main teasing concern is the possibility that many would react to Olive the same way so many people reacted to Apple when Gwyneth Paltrow chose it. Apples are lovely, not a thing wrong with them. But a LOT of people saw it as a REALLY dumb thing to name a person.Of course, Olive has a leg up which Apple didn't...the name Olivia is very similar, so people are already used to hearing those sounds as a name, AND they may also remember Olive Oyl and have Olive filed as a first name from that association.
