[Opinions] Re: Ivy
in reply to a message by Lily
I really like Ivy. I once did a (very unscientific) name analysis that pinpointed Ivy as the perfect girl name for me. There are other names I like more, but I still find Ivy very appealing. It's just what I like: short and uncomplicated, feminine but not frilly, a nice mix of sweet and edgy. I remember briefly knowing an Ivy in elementary school, but she's the only one.
I think Ivy could break into the top 100, but it also won't surprise me if it tops out somewhere around 150. The poison ivy and I.V. issues really bother some people, and that will hold the name back to some degree. I personally find the I.V. thing more distasteful than poison ivy; for a while, my favorite Ivy combo was Ivy Catherine, but then I realized it's too close to "I.V. catheter."
