Holly and Ivy - is it a complete no-go?

We already have a Holly, and like Ivy for dd2. (Yes, dd1 was a Christmas baby and dd2 is due around the same time)

Is the combination too clichéd/twee though?

If it’s relevant, we also have a ds Benjamin (Ben) who is between dd1 and dd2 in age.

The holly and the ivy when they are both full grown
Of all the trees that are in the wood, the holly bears the crown.
