I was just thinking (while watching Another World) that Olivia was a pretty and unused name. The middle name Rose sends me off to Prince's Starfish and Coffee (All of us were ordinary compared to Cynthia Rose / She always stood at the back of the line / A smile beneath her nose).
Very pretty.
Olivia Rose would be lovely.
I bet there won't be half a dozen other Olivias in kindergarten with her, either. Unless I'm way out of the loop on baby naming trends, which is entirely possible.
It was in the top ten for 2004.

Is that what happens? Mothers and fathers think
I
don't know anyone with that name...and lo...kindergartens are full of independently named kids?
Olivia is a very good name.
Greg's sister had her baby last week. We're so out of touch with his family that I haven't even seen her yet. The baby's name is Erin Sophia, which I think is very pretty.
Olivia Rose. But I also like Lydia or Elizabeth for a first name, too.
Pretty pretty pretty! I love all of these. Julia was either going to be Julia (duh), Olivia, or Emma, and at the end, it was narrowed down to just Julia or Olivia.
I like Olivia Rose. Owen and Olivia!
Oh, good catch, Nora. They go very well together!
I think "Enid" is due for a comeback.
Timelies, with a side of gronk. It's Friday, right?
Olivia's a lovely name. And Olivia Rose moreso.
Happy vacation, ita.
Gooooooood morning.
Tep, I hope your uncle feels better. Beth, I hope J feels better.
Olivia Rose is a v. pretty name. I'm all in favor of Olivia and Viola, just because of Twelfth Night.
Enid would have to have risen above uncommon for it to be considered a comeback. It reached the 500s sometime early to mid 20th century, but that's as good as it got. It should combine forces with Ingrid.
I liked Annika as a name, but by the time we were considering it, we were pretty settled on Lillian.
