Too often it is pronounced Alivia, which to my Yorkshire ears sounds like I live ere! My husband pointed this out to me, ruining the name for me forever. So I prefer Olive, because it actually gets pronounced with an 'Oh'.

For some reason, the pronunciation of this name sounds so much like "I'll leave ya" to me and it leaves a bad taste in my mouth. Otherwise, it's a beautiful name.

I pronounce Olivia with a very distinct "O." oh-LIV-ee-uh. I have only heard it pronounced this way. I'm on the west coast of the United States.
