[Opinions] Ottilie
Thoughts on Ottilie?
I think it's really cute and pronounced in English reminds me of names like Amélie or Emily.
I like the Ts pronounced as Ts, not as Ds as in some American accents.
Could it work?

I hate it no matter how you pronounce it. It just lacks.
I like it a lot better than Olivia! It has a charming vibe to it, but sounds a bit upper-class when applied to a person.
I suppose so; I always hear the German pronunciation in my head.
I prefer the French versions - Odette and Odile - but only for their ballet associations. I taught an Odile once who was blonde; for the first week I kept on saying "Odette - oh, sorry, I mean Odile"! She just didn't look like the Black Swan.

I don't care for it personally
Makes me think of otters and the word utterly. It’s quite an upper / upper middle class name in the UK so feels a bit pretentious.
Don't like it
