Growing up I have always loved the name [name_u]Oliver[/name_u] (thank you [name_u]Oliver[/name_u] and Company!). I always wanted to use the name [name_u]Oliver[/name_u], but with how popular it is, it’s kind of turned me off to the name. I’m a teacher so I don’t my children to be one of five kids of the same name in their classroom. Any alternative or similar names you can think of for [name_u]Oliver[/name_u]? Not expecting yet, but hoping to at some point soon.
[name_m]Olivier[/name_m]!

I love Oliver! But yeah, it definitely is very popular. Here’s what I would suggest for alternatives…
Owen, Oscar or Orson
They’re still popular, but not as much. If you want the name to be familiar but not common exactly, they might be what you’re looking for.
Onyx or Oleander
These ones are not as common. Although, Oliver means ‘olive tree’, Oleander is a flower, and Onyx is a gemstone, so they all have nature meanings.
Orlando, Octavio or Octavius
Octavio and Octavius are also Latin names, but are definitely not as familiar as Oliver, and Orlando, well… Orlando might be a bit of a stretch, but you can consider it.
