There are several mums with my name too, which to me is definitely of it's time. Which makes me feel like a very old mum as my eldest (at 11) is nowhere near old enough to be posting on a parenting website Confused

Mary Margaret, my mil is also called Mary Smile . Both go by diminutives.

Ivy. And MIL is Ivy too. Gawd love 'em, they both think it's a ruddy awful name and we're horrified when DD's middle name was Ivy too. I think it's lovely.
