We liked "Birdie" (for a girl) A LOT, but that won't quite work with my name. ;) </p> <p>I think Olive and Olivia are totally different too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-any-girls-with-this-name-in-real-life#post-2676671 Mon, 09 Jan 2017 14:47:42 +0000 youboots 2676671@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlejoy: I think Olive and Olivia are sooooo different. With the names I've heard around here nothing is that unusual. I think it is really great with A's name. What are your boy names? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-any-girls-with-this-name-in-real-life#post-2676597 Mon, 09 Jan 2017 14:07:27 +0000 littlejoy 2676597@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@oliviaoblivia: We live in Portland, Oregon (Hipster Baby, USA), and I can't believe I haven't heard it here!! My LO's preschool teacher has a dog named Olive, but that's it. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-any-girls-with-this-name-in-real-life#post-2676462 Mon, 09 Jan 2017 12:01:11 +0000 birdofafeather 2676462@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>yup, a former client of mine/my friend's SIL's daughter. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-any-girls-with-this-name-in-real-life#post-2676449 Mon, 09 Jan 2017 11:53:11 +0000 Honeygold89 2676449@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've only known one little girl with that name in real life. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-any-girls-with-this-name-in-real-life#post-2676351 Mon, 09 Jan 2017 10:10:23 +0000 oliviaoblivia 2676351@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>There are three at DD1's school.

You're totally right ... unavoidable with nearly every name, :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-any-girls-with-this-name-in-real-life#post-2676189 Sun, 08 Jan 2017 22:32:19 +0000 runnerd 2676189@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>There was one at our old daycare </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-any-girls-with-this-name-in-real-life#post-2676186 Sun, 08 Jan 2017 22:28:23 +0000 Foodnerd81 2676186@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@littlejoy: I guess I'm thinking more like Christie / Christine or something. And more so if they glance at the name than if they hear it. But you will get that with literally any name so it's unavoidable! </p> <p>I really like both names! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-any-girls-with-this-name-in-real-life#post-2676177 Sun, 08 Jan 2017 22:13:02 +0000 littlejoy 2676177@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@meredithNYC: Our 1st LO has a "vintage" name, so I kind of dig the style of name. </p> <p>@Foodnerd81: Interesting ... I would have never thought that. I think the difference is large enough that unless someone was being quick or lazy, it wouldn't happen too often. </p> <p>@2littlepumpkins: Funny ... Olivia isn't even on our radar, but Olive is in the top 3. I think they are so different in style and feel. :) </p> <p>@youboots: Martinis are my favorite! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-any-girls-with-this-name-in-real-life#post-2676170 Sun, 08 Jan 2017 21:51:09 +0000 snowjewelz 2676170@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Only Mr and Mrs Bee's daughter!

However I feel like with similar names like that people will often call her the more popular one. Though in this case they do sound pretty different. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-any-girls-with-this-name-in-real-life#post-2676140 Sun, 08 Jan 2017 20:45:45 +0000 matador84 2676140@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nope, but know lots of Olivia's! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-any-girls-with-this-name-in-real-life#post-2676138 Sun, 08 Jan 2017 20:42:27 +0000 StrawberryBee 2676138@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>E knows a girl named olive in her class at daycare. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-any-girls-with-this-name-in-real-life#post-2676136 Sun, 08 Jan 2017 20:40:19 +0000 Rocker2014 2676136@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO has 2 friends named Olive. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-any-girls-with-this-name-in-real-life#post-2676131 Sun, 08 Jan 2017 20:28:36 +0000 2littlepumpkins 2676131@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wanna say I recently met one but I can't think of any.

It depends on whether that bothers you or not. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-any-girls-with-this-name-in-real-life#post-2676060 Sun, 08 Jan 2017 17:13:06 +0000 littlejoy 2676060@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@madisonbee: Me too!!!
