I keep seeing people say ivy is really popular now which was putting me off but I don’t actually know of any in my DD school or anyone with an Ivy.

Quite popular in my area (SE). One in each of my children’s class ( yr 4 and yr 6) and then a while ago it seemed to get more popular, several babies I heard of being named it. They are probably aged between 2-4 now, I can think of at least 4 off the top of my head. Not heard of any new babies called it recently though. I loved it when I first heard it being used again, not so keen on some of the people who used it in recent years though so it’s put me off a bit.

I’m wondering if it’s a name that gets mentioned a lot but rarely actually used

I never met one either. Only seen the Ivy on tv (Coronation Street) years ago.
