Even though it's less masculine than say, Alex or Jack, I think it sounds so lovely and soft. I also think it's a great alternative to the ever-popular Oliver. Maybe I'm just biased because I once knew a gorgeous Canadian guy named Olivier... I love love love the name Olivier!

Also love Raphael, Evangeline, Neve. I absolutely love the name Avril… but my husband won’t go for it because of the Avril Lavigne association. Also love Raphael, Evangeline, Neve.

We also have an Archange (female) in the family and I'd love to use it but I don't think the American tongue can do it justice!

I thought I had invented it. A combination of our parents names. But then I found out it was a placename in Italy and now I find out it's a placename in Canada. Very cool.
