Liva

Liva is a girl’s name of Latin and Norse origin. As an Italian derivation of the name Olivia, Liva means “olive tree,” representing a symbol of peace in both ancient and modern times. Liva also comes from the Old Norse name Hlíf, meaning “protection,” and the phrase liv, meaning “life.” In Norse mythology, Lif was one of two human beings prophesized to survive Ragnarok and repopulate the world. This legendary namesake will serve as an inspiration to baby Liva throughout their life.
