Is Ivy getting popular?

[UpTheFRIGGinDuff]

Just that really...

[Layl77]

No, it isn't here. You may get a few but don't think it's becoming Evie or lily

[Mintyy]

Yes. I have two near neighbours who have given their baby girl the name Ivy within the past 2 years.

[OddBoots]

Relatively speaking, yes. [http://names.darkgreener.com/#ivy link to graph]]

[OddBoots]

oops, try again. link to graph

[UpTheFRIGGinDuff]

Gah!

[sandfrog]

I don't know any little Ivys.

I've recently met an Ivy. It's the granny chic rage

[PartPixie]

I have one, she's 3 months. Don't know, or know of any others. No one has said to me 'oh x's daughter is called that too.' Based on that I would say it isnt a unique or very different name but wouldn't say it is getting very popular. I hope it doesn't become really popular. I do love her name

[RevengeWiggle]

I've not met any of any age, it's a lovely name

[UpTheFRIGGinDuff]

I really like it,but I'm worried it'll become the next Lilly...The stats have certainly climbed fast.

[EnidClowes]

Ivy is on our list too- am also worried its about to become really popular. It's such a lovely name.

[Minty82]

Never met one!

[EnidClowes]

Should have said that I have no reason to think this as I've never met a single Ivy!

[Alisvolatpropiis]

I know one, she's 4/5.

I like it.

[SaucyJack]

I know a couple. I don't like it (if anyone cares)

I just think it's one of the Grandma names that should've been left in the nursing home.

[SaucyJack]

Sorry PartPixie - just bothered to read full thread.

[LemonBreeland]

I know two that have been born in the past 3 months.

[PartPixie]

That's ok saucyjack I know it's not everybody's cup of tea but we love it

[sydenhamhiller]

I don't know any (3 kids aged 9-1) and have been a childminder, so meet LOTS of different little ones at different groups.
My grandma was an Ivy - so I am quite partial to it. I quite liked it for my DD but DS worried about 'Poison Ivy'. I believe she may be a Marvel villain...

[honeybeeridiculous]

I know 1 toddler called Ivy, very cute

[grizzabellia]

I know one under one. I think it will get more popular but difficult to predict if it will end up in the top twenty arena. I think there are several things about it that make it likely to get popular - flower names, granny names and names beginning with I are quite in at the moment and it ticks all these boxes. I quite like it, although as a plant it isn't particularly attractive!

[perplexedpirate]

DS would have been ivy if a girl. It's lovely, but definitely getting more popular.

Never met one. My niece was going to be one 8 years ago, but the family went for Isobel instead. Wrong decision, IMHO. Great name.

[thegreylady]

I had an Aunty Ivy so I tend to associate the name with her.
