Only 'O' Names

Though greatly overshadowed by the trendy Olivia, Olive has a quiet, subtle appeal of its own -- and is now enjoying a remarkable comeback. Olive is one of only four girl names starting with O on the US Top 1000. Cool couple Isla Fisher and Sacha Baron Cohen chose it for their daughter, reviving the name to stylishness, and now Drew Barrymore has a little Olive too, as has country singer Jake Owen.

Oliver is an international star, ranking near the top of the charts throughout the English-speaking world and in a host of European and Latin American countries, from Norway to Chile, Slovenia to Switzerland. Why? Because Oliver is energetic and good-natured, stylish but classic, with a meaning symbolizing peace and fruitfulness.

Floral, elegant, and bold, Ophelia re-entered the US Top 1000 in 2015 after more than 50 years off the charts. It has risen more than 700 spots since then and shows no signs of slowing down. Now in the US Top 300, could Ophelia one day become the next Olivia or Amelia?

Lacks the vintage charm of the original Arabella, but with the love for all names Bella, it might appeal to some.

Orianna is a feminine name with Latin origins, derived from elements meaning 'golden' or 'dawn.' It can be interpreted as 'golden dawn' or 'rising light,' carrying beautiful imagery of daybreak and new beginnings. The name gained modest popularity in the early 21st century, appreciated for its elegant, flowing quality and romantic feel. Orianna offers the friendly nicknames Ori or Anna while maintaining its sophisticated full form. The name has a musical quality with its rhythm and vowel sounds, giving it a graceful, feminine energy. Though not among the most common names, Orianna has remained consistently recognized across English-speaking countries, striking a balance between familiarity and distinction.
