Baby Names

charlotte or olivia?

Re: charlotte or olivia?

  • Those were our 2 choices. We opted for Charlotte because it's wayyy less popular where we live than Olivia. And a co worker of DH just named his dd Olivia.

    But I think they are both great!

  • Hmm...I like them both...what about Charlotte Olivia?
  • Olivia.  I really hate the nn Charlie for a girl so it's turned me off to Charlotte.

  • both are great names. I have a niece named Oliva so I couldn't consider it.?
  • Both are beautiful but I like Charlotte better as it's not as 'popular' as Olivia- you just don't hear it as much.  I also like the nn Charlie :o)
  • Charlotte is such a beautiful name.
  • I love Charlotte!

  • ARE YOU KIDDING???

    That's my name. Charlotte Olivia.

    So if I were you, I'd just do Charlotte Olivia. Well, no I probably wouldn't as I hated being named Charlotte and go by Charli. However, when I was growing up the only people I knew named Charlotte had gray hair and a lot of wrinkles. And the pesky spider. To this day I get "Charlotte's Web?" every time someone finds out my name is Charlotte. Super annoying. (almost as annoying as the "Charlie's Angels?" I get when I tell people I go by Charli)

    This day and age, though, Charlotte Olivia is probably the next tryndee thing to go down in the name books. I don't know.

    I'm just completely tripping out that you posted this. ?

  • Charlotte, and I think it goes well with your other DCs names.

  • I think Charlotte is great. Olivia is a nice name but has been really overused the last 10 years.

  • I love both of them, they were both on our short list of girl names ~ we decided to go with Olivia, just because we want to use my mom's first name as the baby's middle name it Olivia works better for that, but if my mom's name would have worked with either we would still be choosing which one to go with!

    Charlotte. There will be 10 girls in her class with "Olivia" as a first or middle name.

  • I'd go with Charlotte. Olivia is too popular for my taste.
