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

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.
