Thoughts on Ivy?

Thoughts on Ivy? Do you know any and is it too Blue Ivy (beyonce) ?

[BaronessBomburst]

I love it. I think it's a beautiful name and I didn't think of Beyoncé at all.
I had two aunts called Ivy when I was growing up, and I was very attached to one of them. Ivy I was born in 189-something, and Ivy B in 1920; I dont know any modern Ivys.

[SuperBeagle]

Love it, but it's very popular where I am (Australia) now. It was number 14 in 2016.

I don't think it's too Beyonce, owing to its popularity.

[Yourshakraishangingout]

I like it a lot! It is becoming increasingly popular though (I know many under 1!) and it was predicated to be one of the biggest climbers up the charts. But if popularity doesn't bother you go for it-I don't think of Beyoncé either.

[Mrsknackered]

I don't think Beyoncé. I love it. I only know one who is 15 and named after her grandmother.
My sister was going to be Ivy, but my dad thought it was too popular and they went with Evie instead, lots of 'oooh that's unusual'. Now look at how many there are!

[MaMisled]

Love it!

[ChocolateCrunch]

I know one, but I think it's becoming more popular. Don't think about the Beyonce connection personally.

[Lobsterquadrille2]

I love it. It was my grandmother's name and she hated it, which must have influenced me as I now wish I'd used it for DD.

[daisypond]

I think Ivy is awful. Ivy is a persistent weed that you try your best to kill off. It's getting very popular now, though, as a name.

[lesliekae]

popularity does put me off a bit but any name could become super popular! any middle name suggestions?

[SumAndSubstance]

I agree with daisypond, it's just such a horrible plant!

[ThisIsReallyFunny]

Love it

[PressPaws]

I love Ivy and would have used it for DC2 but it's too close to DC1's name. And DC2 turned out to be a boy anyway!

I like Ivy Sophia, Ivy Alice, Ivy Adeline, and Ivy Seren. But does depend on your surname.

[Sophronia]

It's ok. I prefer Iris though.

[Idratherhaveacupoftea]

My auntie was an Ivy and loathed it.

[bridgetreilly]

I think it's lovely as a name and a plant! I've never tried to kill off the ivy in my garden and don't really know why anyone would.

Ivy Elizabeth
Ivy Eleanor
Ivy Rosalind
Ivy Caroline
Ivy Helena
Ivy Catherine
Ivy Juliet
Ivy Jennifer
Ivy Jean
Ivy Lois
Ivy Louise

[lesliekae]

i prefer Iris too but cant use it I love Ivy but i am a bit worried for the reason that some people hate the plant (or weed) !

[PandorasXbox]

I irrationally dislike it. All I can think of is poisoned Ivy of Corrie.

[mummytwoh]

I adore it - it's on my list for my Christmas baby.

[LostwithSawyer]

It's very pretty. I don't think of the plant.
Any name can become popular.

[Awwlookatmybabyspider]

Very pretty.
MN suggestions.

Ivy Marie
Ivy Monet
Ivy Christina

[pilates]

Horrible weed
How about Primrose?

[maitaimojito]

I like the sound of it but I hate the plant. I’d also be worried about references to ‘poison Ivy’.

[holidayqueriwifi]

When I think of Ivy, I don't think of poison ivy at all! Don't over think it. It's cute and increasingly popular.

[MammieBear]

Nothing wrong with it as a name, you might like Bryony.

[HenriettaH]

I dont like the name.Most nurses will likely think of an IV drip. Just not a nice name in my opinion.But each to their own
