I had a teacher in HS named Olympio, but went by Olly... doubtful it'll be a favorite, but he was a great teacher!

My grandfather is Alan and everyone calls him Ollie.

I grew up with an Alden (pronounced ALL-den not AL-den) and we called him Ollie. It's actually one of my favorite names. But I think you can pronounce it both ways (not sure though?)

Thank you ladies!

I thought of one...Macaulley "Ollie" is sorta how the end sounds, but DH didn't like it.

But I am open to anything, no matter if the "Ollie" sound is in the end or middle or beginning.

I'm going to give these names to him to see if anything sorta sticks. If you think of anything else, please post it and I would be SOOOO appreciative!

We don't know if we're having a boy or a girl and it looks like I'll be having this baby very likely in the next 2 weeks, and we STILL don't have a boy's name! We have gone back and forth on so many names and combos over these last several months but just can't fins something that we LOVE so we have kept on looking. The girls name just came so easily, too.....sigh!!!!

I think it's because it's our 3rd baby and we already used our top boy and girl name on our first and second kids. That was tough enough to decide and after that we are finding a lot of names we like but nothing that we can 100% say "this is IT", kwim?
