[Opinions] Ollie
What do you think of the nickname Ollie for a girl? Besides Olivia, what names do you think Ollie could be a nickname for? Would it work for Ophelia?

I think Ollie is a fine nickname for a girl, I would love to use it as a nickname for Olivia myself. Ollie was my great grandmothers name, I don't know if it was her full name or a nickname, but I heard that her full name might have been Althea (not sure of the spelling).
It would work as a nickname for any name beginning with Ol, or possibly Althea, Alethea is the al is pronounced like all. It doesn't work for Ophelia though.

Hi !!!
I don't like the nn Ollie.
First of all I think it is childish.
Second: I love the name Holly so I don't like at all a name such Ollie with a similar pronounce but so different.
However full names for Ollie are Olympia, Olga and Olena.
Because for Olivia I prefer Liv and for Ophelia I prefer others.

I know a woman in her seventies whose real name is Ollie. Her nickname is Cricket. Her husband is either Robert or Charles, I forget which, but he is nicknamed Tick. Sounds like a bug farm.
Anyway, I think Ollie is babyish and goofy as a nn for either sex. It's like Charlie or Sam on a girl, mildly cute on a little kid, but self-consciously tomboyish on an older girl or a grown woman.

Not as a stand alone and I prefer it for a boy
Olive? Maybe that (I personally don't like it bit that's not to say you won't)

Sorry, but I find Ollie to be too masculine to use on a girl.
I don't like it. It makes me think of oily. :(
I think it's an ok name for a girl with an Ol- name but people will expect it on a boy over a girl but it's your choice. I don't think it would work with Ophelia, no link in my mind to them
Oleksandra? Any name beginning or ending with OL.
