Stuck between these two names

We have two girls names we like, Ivy and Delilah. We originally liked Delilah more but have been leaning more towards Ivy recently. What one would you go for if you had to choose? Any name suggestions welcome too 😊

Ivy!

Delilah for me. Know a few Ivys. Nice kids the name is just too popular for me.

Ivy

Delilah
Dislike Ivy strongly

Ivy. Don't like Delilah as it reminds me of the Tom Jones song and I don't like the sentiment of the song.

EmmaC78 · 22/05/2020 17:32

Ivy

MidnightVelvet9 · 22/05/2020 17:34

Ivy.

Delilah will mean that twats will sing at her constantly!

Whatsyourflava · 22/05/2020 17:34

Love both!!! Such beautiful names. Think you'll have to pick out a hat! I guess Delilah has more nickname potentials if you care about that. I think I slightly prefer Ivy having said that! I'm stuck

LotusClover · 22/05/2020 17:35

Ivy is much simpler and prettier. Delilah is fussy and a bit pretentious to me.

Igotta · 22/05/2020 17:38

I prefer Lilah to be honest.

HarrietM87 · 22/05/2020 17:39

Ivy for sure

Roseburn · 22/05/2020 17:57

Lilah.

Roseburn · 22/05/2020 17:58

or Lyla.

Thisismytimetoshine · 22/05/2020 18:00

Ivy is beautiful. Delilah is really not...

BabyDust13 · 22/05/2020 18:04

I would go for Delilah. I do really like Ivy but it's so popular now but if that doesn't bother you Ivy is fab
