I don't think it works well in English. Olivia, Olive, Livy all look/sound better to me.I'd say it like olivey. OL-iv-EE

I get where you’re going with it, because names like Rosalie and Coralie are so pretty. But it just sounds kind of juvenile and mispronounced/misspelled because of the overwhelming and exhausting popularity of Olivia. I’ve often found in real life that if you have a slight variation on something common nobody seems to be able to figure it out, whereas if you’re completely unique people will at least remember that.I’m also not 100% on how to pronounce it at first glance. Would it be AW-lih-vee, OH-lih-vee or oh-LIH-vee?

It looks like a mistake, like a typo of Olivia. I guess I'd pronounce it Olive-ee. Like it's a description of a salad dressing. It's lemony and olivey.
So yeah, I do prefer Olivia, but I'm not wild about Olivia.
