Ivy Jasmine but like both.

Depends on your surname, you could end up with JIM.

Jasmine Ivy

SlugsyMalone · 06/07/2018 06:35

I was only thinking yesterday that I love the name Ivy, personally I’d go for Ivy Jasmine, both beautiful names though :)

Jasmine ivy

Jasmine Ivy

Jasmine Ivy

I prefer Jasmine to Ivy, so Jasmine Ivy.

There are so many Ivys at the moment, whereas she'd probably be the only Jasmine in her class.

Like the pp I think Jasmine is the nicer name so I'd put that first. One name will become her identity while the other will get a very occasionally mention, so choose the one you like best rather than worrying about how they sound together.

Cosmoa · 06/07/2018 07:50

Definitely Jasmine Ivy imo Smile

shaggedthruahedgebackwards · 06/07/2018 07:53

Jasmine Ivy

why really can't see why jim as initials would be a factor to consider?

Discotits · 06/07/2018 07:55

Jasmin Ivy as I know a fair few Ivys. Both nice though.

fieryginger · 06/07/2018 07:55

Ivy first.

Discotits · 06/07/2018 07:55

Missed the e off Jasmine there, sorry.

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 06/07/2018 10:45

Jasmine Ivy.

Jasmine Ivy

OwlBeThere · 06/07/2018 13:25

Ivy jasmine, I prefer the name Ivy (though i like both) and I think it flows better that way.

MikeUniformMike · 06/07/2018 13:37

Prefer Jasmine not keen on Ivy.
Both climbing plants. You could be describing my patio. Is your surname Vine?

daisypond · 06/07/2018 13:43

I much prefer Jasmine to Ivy (not keen on Ivy at all), so Jasmine Ivy - but maybe two flower names are a bit much?

SumAndSubstance · 06/07/2018 15:35

I also think it's a bit botanical: the good plant and the bad plant.
Definitely though, the name you should put first is the one you like most, rather than the one that sounds better first. I prefer the name Jasmine to Ivy so I would go that way round.

MariaMadita · 06/07/2018 15:46

I personally prefer Jasmine so I'd go with Jasmine Ivy.
But I agree with the pps, put the name you like most first :)

It is however a very botanical combination... A non-botanical middle name (or second middle name) could be nice.

fikel · 06/07/2018 15:49

Definitely prefer Jasmine, agree that maybe Ivy is a little too much of the same theme

Floralnomad · 06/07/2018 15:49

Jasmine , I wouldn’t use Ivy at all .

Dontbuymesocks · 06/07/2018 15:51

Jasmine Ivy.

Shiftymake · 06/07/2018 15:54

Ivy, know no one with that name so Ivy Jasmine vote here. Do know some Jasmines though so think it depends on what area people are in.
