Question

What is the origin or significance of the name Olivia?

Answer 1

Olivia means Olive Tree. Sources that I consulted stated it was of Greek, Latin or old English origins. However, given that England isn't known for its olive trees, I would suggest the name originated in the Meditterreanean. It is a classic name but has really grown in popularity in the past two decades.

Answer 3

Olive Tree
