Olivia draws on the Latin oliva, the olive tree long linked with peace and steady growth rather than conquest. Its associations lean toward calm resilience -- a tree that bears fruit slowly, through patience rather than force. The name is often read as carrying a quiet, grounded hopefulness, not dramatic destiny.
Mercury can be used for one thing and its contrary because it is of a variable nature. - Picatrix (Andalusia, ~1000.AD)
