There are several ways to define 'Olleke'.
One: it's a Dutch version of 'Olly', a nick for Oliver. Olleke is owned by Oliver, so we could have been 'Olly' or 'Oliver'.
Second: It's the first word of a Dutch riddle. Like 'Eenie' from 'Eenie Meenie Miney Mo', Dutch say 'Olleke Bolleke Rebusolleke'
Third: In the Dutch dialect of West-Flanders 'Olle' means 'every' like in the words 'everyone' (ollemolle) and 'everything' (olles). As you may know the Dutch language uses a lot of diminutives. Extensions -ke, -tje, -pje, -je, -nkje, -etje at the end of a word, are ways to make a Dutch word more adorable and tiny. In a way these words makes people smile and bring joy, just like the Japanese discription Kawaii. So Olle-ke is petite and we have something that everyone loves and everyone wants.
That's how we define Olleke. Cuteness overload. -
It's not the most international name, but people don't need to be reminded of our name after hearing it once.
Native English speakers pronouce it as OO-LEK-KEH and that's not bad. They emphasize on the first letter.
But should be more like the beginning when you say 'Olly' and sounds like Oll luh kuh.
We don't really mind if you got it wrong, unless you are Dutch speaking. That wouldn't make any sense. So why did we teach you? You asked!
