I really like it! What are you thinking about for middle names?

One of my best friends from college named her daughter Ivy. I like it.

I don't get the comments that are like "it's a weed" or "rats live in ivy." I love the look of ivy. I even like the connotation -- it's aggressive and determined and it will take over if you let it. To me, that's not the worst association for a little girl. It's also beautiful. And rats only live in it if (1) you have rats, and (2) you don't take care of it.
There are many excellent associations with ivy -- it's romantic and beautiful and associated with old building and august institutions. I never thing "weed, rats" when I hear that word, anymore than I think "thorns, hard to establish" when I hear the word rose. I think people are being way overly negative.

I think Ivy is lovely (both as a name and as a plant).

It’s a weed. It’s the kind of name that easily lends itself to teasing (Ew, stay away from poison Ivy!).

I know a nice one in her teens. Seems like a good choice if you have a very long and complicated last name.

Another minority vote, I really like it. I like that it’s short as well. Have met a few (I think 3) in my youngest’s activities (she’s 4), but don’t remember any with my older kids so gues it might be on the upswing (if that matters).

Cute name for a little girl, but strongly dislike it for a grown woman. Also too trendy.
