What is the meaning of the name Ollivar ?

Ollivar is Spanish in Origin.

Ollivar is a modern, rare masculine given name most plausibly formed as a variant of Oliver and Olivar. Oliver comes through Old French Olivier, popularized by the paladin of the Chanson de Roland, and is commonly linked to Latin oliva/olivarius, “olive; olive tree grower,” though some scholars note blend with the Germanic Alfihar “elf army.” The spelling with double l may also echo Olli-, the Finnish short form of Olavi (from Old Norse Óláfr), further encouraging its contemporary look. Spanish olivar means “olive grove,” reinforcing the agricultural sense.

Usage of Ollivar surfaces in late-20th- and early-21st-century English-speaking records as an inventive choice alongside Oliver and Olivia. Meanings center on the olive tree’s symbolism of peace, endurance, and fruitfulness; under the Germanic reading, “elf army” adds a mythic tint. Related forms include Oliver, Olivier, Oliviero, Olivar, and Olavi; diminutives Ollie/Olly are standard.
