Two plant names together?

Our last name is Rose,

For a girl's name I really love Ivy.

Ivy Elizabeth Rose.
Ivy Rose

It's just too plant-y isn't it?

I absolutely love it!

mumhum · 01/02/2017 20:01

No, it's lovely!

Imavinoops · 01/02/2017 20:04

Somehow I KNEW you were going to say Ivy Rose as I clicked on the link!

psychic!!

I think it sounds lovely.

Plus coincidence, our little girl is going to be called Elizabeth Rose so I'm biased for that bit too!

You think so?

I love how it sounds together, just concerned people would find it strange or too much!

It's a lovely name, use it!

Also, my DD is called Elizabeth and Rose is a name I'd love to use if I ever had another girl. So you have impeccable taste Grin

Jumble27 · 01/02/2017 20:13

Just re-read and Rose is your surname. I still stand by my statement Wink

emancipationofmimi · 01/02/2017 20:23

Just like @imavinoops before I clicked this I was like I bet it's Ivy Rose!!!

It sounds like a beautiful name.

foodiefil · 01/02/2017 20:27

Both lovely and not too planty Flowers

mrssmith79 · 01/02/2017 20:29

I said Ivy Rose in my head as I was clicking on this thread Grin. Go for it I say.

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 01/02/2017 21:31

Beautiful Smile

Jooni · 01/02/2017 21:48

Love it!

SallyGinnamon · 01/02/2017 21:50

Sounds lovely. I think there was a Daisy Leaf younger than DD at school that I loved too!

oleoleoleole · 01/02/2017 21:51

Noooo it lacks imagination!

BaronessBomburst · 01/02/2017 21:53

It's fine!
A great aunt of mine became Ivy Ivemy on marriage. That wasn't so good. 😂

beautyandthebump · 02/02/2017 00:17

That is so beautiful! Flowers

GreatScot8 · 02/02/2017 02:24

I think it's gorgeous.

sycamore54321 · 02/02/2017 03:19

No. No, no, no. I would hate to have a 'themed' name. She will have questions and comments and jokes about it her entire life. Is there really no other name you prefer?

I'd also google it before you use it - it sounds to me like the name of something quite 'adult' - could be any or all from an expensive lingerie store to a strip club.

Sounds lovely to me

Grannyben · 02/02/2017 20:08

Laura2507 · 05/02/2017 09:34

My great aunt was Ivy and when she got married her name became 'Ivy Plant' Grin

I love Ivy Elizabeth Rose
