Etymology
Olli-Matti is a Finnish compound given name combining 'Olli', a diminutive of Olavi (derived from Old Norse Óláfr, meaning "ancestor's descendant" or "heirloom"), and 'Matti' (the Finnish form of Matthew, from Hebrew Mattityahu, meaning "gift of Yahweh"). This name is used primarily in Finland and among Finnish-speaking communities, with no specific religious exclusivity, though both components have Christian origins via saints (Saint Olaf and Saint Matthew); it reflects a common Nordic tradition of hyphenated double names popularized in the 20th century.
Olli-Matti currently ranks #720 in the United States as a boy's name.
