Dean makes me think of that annoying character on Gilmore Girls who cheated on his wife. Also it's a word and I think of
Dean's list and stuff like that when I hear it. It's also kind of weak sounding. Don't like it at all. I wish it would remind me of
James Dean but it doesn't. It's fine as a last name but not as a first name.
I love
Ivy. It used to be my top name as well.
