Hmmm... so maybe a different spelling is in order?
What's wrong with "OlympiX"? "OHlympics"?
:-)
Just wondering....
Later,

Better  beware. The USOC and IOC OWN the trademark name of "Olympic".
They've sued  at least one organization (and a couple of businesses) over
the use of it,  and the organization had to change its name. Oddly enough,
they haven't  tried to sue the "Special Olympics" over it, probably because
they'd look  like the Grinch if they did.

FWIW, the US Congress in its infinite  wisdom granted the USOC and IOC
trademark status for the word "olympic" and  thus eliminated it from being
considered generic or in the pubic  domain.
