What does Ollie mean?
2 syllablesOrigin: French, Latin, Etruscan, Greek, and Welsh

Ollie most often functions as a pet form of Oliver, which traces to the Old French Olivier and carries the association with the olive tree. As a name of its own it has become common enough to stand independently.

Ollie has a bouncy, cheerful sound, playful and easygoing, like a name that's already mid-laugh. It suits a companion with an upbeat, mischievous streak.
