Olivia means Peace
I was told that my name means peace. I am a very down to earth and humble person. I dislike arguments, confrontation, fighting and anomosity. So, I'm in the situation where my name helps define me. I am living out my name. My nick names are Libby, Live, Livvy and LibDib. Sometimes people try to be funny and call me Oliver, ha ha ha that's the only downside. But because I'm so peaceful I don't let it bother me.
