I actually like all three, but voted for [name_f]Oriana[/name_f] because I think it feels a little “younger”. I do like the nickname [name_u]Tavi[/name_u] or [name_f]Tavia[/name_f] for [name_f]Octavia[/name_f], but it feels like a very serious name, and I’m a little wary after seeing it in the TV show [name_m]Rome[/name_m] - the character also had a brother named [name_m]Octavius[/name_m]. And it may sound a little like Octopus to young children. [name_f]Olympia[/name_f] again is very pretty, but I have trouble getting the image of [name_f]Olympia[/name_f] Dukakis out of my head when I hear it. [name_f]Oriana[/name_f] seems like the easiest to wear - it reminds me of princessy names like [name_u]Ariel[/name_u] :slight_smile:

I love [name_f]Octavia[/name_f]. It has elegance and grace.
[name_f]Olympia[/name_f] is also wonderful but I do think instantly of Manets [name_f]Olympia[/name_f]. Beautiful but a portrayal of a prositute so…

My vote was for [name_f]Oriana[/name_f]. It’s a pretty name that works well for a young girl and an adult. It also comes with the cute nickname [name_u]Ori[/name_u]…likely to turn into Oreo! My image can range from a princessy type of little girl to a more serious one.

[name_f]Octavia[/name_f] seems a little serious and heavy handed for a young girl although it can be alleviated by the nickname [name_u]Tavi[/name_u]. I have a feeling that it’s a name you really need to grow into. This definitely brings an image of a serious, quiet and observant little girl.

Lastly [name_f]Olympia[/name_f] is not really my style although [name_f]Pia[/name_f] is a cute nickname but I do prefer to have a choice of using both the full name and a short form instead of relying on one or the other.

I like all the names, but [name_f]Oriana[/name_f] gets my vote. Its sweet, youthful and not as clunky as the other two. I do prefer the [name_m]French[/name_m] version though, [name_f]Oriane[/name_f].

[name_f]Love[/name_f] [name_f]Octavia[/name_f], it feels so regal and mysterious, and [name_u]Tavi[/name_u] really brings it into this day and age.

I like [name_f]Octavia[/name_f] the best but all sound good. :slight_smile:

Out of the three I prefer [name_f]Oriana[/name_f].
