Envious or blue
Livia is an ancient Roman name, most famously borne by the wife of Emperor Augustus. While it is often used as a short form of Olivia, it is a distinct name with its own history. The etymology likely stems from the Latin 'lividus', referring to a blue or leaden color, or potentially 'invidia', meaning envy.
