Sepiatone Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 OLIVE? NOT "Apple", "Peach" or "Pomegranate-Darjeeling" or whatever dumb-sh** names celebrities conjure up these days? I like the three of them already! Congratulations to the new parents. The fun is just beginning. Sepiatone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FredCDobbs Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 When parents give their children odd names, they never think to consider what torment the children will go through all during their lifetimes, because of teasing, starting at about age 6, and especially in school. They should have named her Olivia, with a nickname of Olive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willbefree25 Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 True. Unless kids suddenly become less cruel or don't remember their ancient comics history, she will be known as Olive Oyl in school. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfpcc1 Posted October 3, 2012 Author Share Posted October 3, 2012 Olive isn't such a bad name. It's better than Tu, Pilot Inspector, Kal El, or Banjo, (The kids of Rob Morrow, Jason Lee, Nicholas Cage, and Rachel Griffiths.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FredCDobbs Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 Think of the thousands of times in her life she will be asked "Is that a nickname for Olivia?", when she fills out forms at doctors offices, drivers license bureaus, other government agencies, and other places that require the full legal name. Think of all the errors on important forms when she says "Olive", and the lady writes down "Olivia". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FredCDobbs Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 I don't dislike the name Olive. She might have been named after early silent film star Olive Borden. I always thought her name was nice. But she was a movie star, not a kid in school. The teasing and errors with the name always start in school, and they go on for decades. In the 19th Century, some girls were named with nice sounding names that were already being used for something else, such as India Wilkes, in Gone With the Wind. I think that is a beautiful name, and in fact I think Olive Borden is a beautiful name too. And no, the world will never change, and mean little boys will always make jokes about people's names.

Hibi Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 WHO would name their kid PIlot Inspector??? Is there a meaning behind it? I'd definitely change it, if it were mine as soon as I legally could! Talk about a bad parent/child future relationship! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
