Olga
A girls’ name of Old Norse origin, meaning holy; sacred; a form of Helga.
Olga by the numbers
In 2025, 5 babies in England and Wales were named Olga. In the US, 57 were, though that figure is from 2017, the most recent full year we hold.
For the size of the two countries, it is given noticeably more often in the US than in England and Wales.
Its American peak was 1,691 babies in 1918, so it is a 1910s name that has since fallen a long way.
