    Comment left Mar 24, 2011: "I love this name! My husband and I had 2 girls names picked a year before we were even pregnant, Olive and Willow! My daughter is now 12weeks but we went with Willow because I thought that Olive was becoming really popular but now that we have Willow, that name is becoming really popular too. I love both names! If we have another girl her name will be Olive" (Report as inappropriate)

    Comment left Feb 21, 2011: "I had suggested the name Olive to my boyfriend when I was around 20 weeks pregnant with our daughter. He said heck no! Well at only 26 weeks they had to take her emergency c-section. His mother asked if there were any names that I absolutely loved and in my drugged up and crying in hysterics moment I said Olive. She said well that should be her name then. My boyfriend said he was ok with it and now he couldn't imagine her with any other name. I had no idea it was becoming so popular again though. The only Olive that I know of is an elderly woman that goes to my church. Olive Elizabeth 10/08/10" (Report as inappropriate)
