We have 4 Olivers in a sports club of 50 members, so we have nicknamed them to best differentiate them in coversation:

Tall Oli
Spanish Oli
Fit Oli
Baby* Oli (not ratified yet)

This is so much better than making people learn their lastnames and have their own lookup table.

Essentially isn't this how surnames started, Jeff (the) Baker, Steve (the) Smith, etc.

Except we use appearance rather than occupation, because we’re shallow.

And descriptions that the various Olis don’t mind being called (which is why baby Oli might turn into young Oli)
