Etymology: (term, Olivier, lang=fro), by folk etymology shaped to look like Late Latin (term, olivarius, , olive tree, lang=la), but probably representing a (Ger.) form of (term, íleifr, , ancestral + relic, lang=non) (modern (term, Olaf) and (term, Olof)), or (proto, Germanic, all + wer, all + true) (modern (term, Alvar), (term, ílvaro)).
