It is Kristians godparents: Marthea Andersdatter, mother, father, Hans Olsen and Morten Christophersen. They would be family and friends.

The family in the 1865 Census in Bentzegaden St., sure is Otto´s family, he wasn´t born at that time (1880) he surely had a big family! Now we know his parents lived in 1880, from then on there has to be a registry of their death. And I still have to find Hilsen Dorthea Olsen ,probably a sister, who continued in touch with him until a year before he died.

Wonderful, excellent site,found the place.
Always asking for more, sorry, but is there a place where I can find information on those particular farms, who might have lived or worked there at the time, 1850-1880, there are three with that name: Nurstun Bøje, Uppigard Bøje and Nigard Bøje.
Thanks

Oslo Kommune Byarkiv got local censuses up to 1954 maybe they could help?

You could have done a Forum Search on Olsen-Böje, but I guess this will do.
You never got the witnesses at Andreas bapt., they were:
Hans Nielsen, Baltzer Johannesen, Johan do (= Johannesen), Anne Maria Hansdatter, Maria Nielsen og Abigael Christiansdatter, Alle af Drøbak

Many thanks, I´ve been reviewing all the data you´ve sent me, in your message of April 16 linking on Gustav Bernhard #161, after his mother´s name I can´t read very clearly, Bent or Beut Zebannen ?? could that be the address they were living at the time?
I´ve also sent an e-mail to Oslo Kommune Byarkiv to see if they can give me any information on Dorthea Olsen, perhaps when she was born or her death certificate or if she had any living relatives, on her letter to my grandfather she mentioned her son had died.
Thank you again for all your help.

Summary:
Conclusions on the data you have so generously provided:
Otto Olsen-Bøje born in Sagene-Aker, Kristiania,Norway on December 9, 1880 probably some family origin connection with the Lom/Skjåk, Gudbrandsdalen, Oppland County region,Bøje farm.
Parents Kristian (Christian)Olaus Olsen(July25,1829) and Andrine(Andrea)Olsdatter(January 16,1836)
Grandparents:Ole Andersen and Karen Marie Chistophersdatter and Ole Nielsen and Anne Mikkelsdatter.
Known siblings:
Oluf Alfred Christiansen Olsen(July 8, 1857)
Gustav Bernhard Christiansen Olsen (August 11, 1861)
Axel Olaus Christiansen Olsen (Fenruary 25,1865)
Kristian Ferdinand Kristiansen Olsen (March 14, 1873)
Henrik Amandus Kristiansen Olsen (September 4, 1879)

Probably also but no confirmed data:
Mina Kristiansen (Feburary 20,1870- Naes Rommerik)
Ragnvald Olsen ((March 15, 1889- Skjdsmo)
Dorthea Olsen (living at Kingosgate 18, leilighet (flat) #235, 0457 Oslo in December 3, 1963.

Emigrated to South America in August 1911.
Probably changed Bøje to Böje because the Spanish alphabet has no ø.

Please suggest me how I can continue following my ancestors search, I am always so grateful for your help.

It was the place they were living, Bentzebakken.
No hit for Mina or Ragnvald, guess they are the ones in the 1900 census. Ragnvald is then Minas son, if Olaf was the father he was only 16 years old.

You are right. There must be some mistake. Probably Olafs birthdate is incorrect or he is not the father, or Ragnvald is not their son. I thought maybe Mina Kristiansen was Kristians daugther (shouldnt she be Kristiansdatter?)and therefore Ottos sister, and Ragnvald Olsen a younger brother, his family name does not link with Olaf or does it?
The family names are very confusing.
Nevertheless if they dont appear anywhere else we cannot follow that lead.
Are Bentzebakken and Bentzegaden the same?
Do you have any suggestion where and what I should investigate?
What about his grandparents are they searchable?

Bentzegata (street) or maybe Bentzebakken (hill) or Bentsebrua (bridge) is a part of Sagene, Oslo overlooking the river Akerselva.
