I think you should abbreviate it to 'Iver'.

I voted Pie. You obviously can't decide on which spelling to use so call him Pie. You know it makes sense.  _________________ My Flickr PageNow with added ball and chain.

Olly
Ollie to me feels like the plural form of Olly with a missing s on the end.
Olly joined Olly, now there are two Ollies.

Ol - no, that's not a typo  My mate was named Oliver by his parents. Everybody calls him Ollie (and the written version) but he asked me to call him 'Ol' years ago to see if anybody else followed. He's now known as Ol Al

Yes this. Call him Oli or Oliver or whatever and there will come a point where his shortened name gets written down and no one will have decided what it will be it will just happen.
