Re: Iris and Ivy
in reply to a message by Joiya
I have liked Ivy forever, but it's a guilty pleasure. I'd appreciate it as someone's name. I'd never use it though. Because ivy is a pest plant here, and because of "poison ivy" (which was a pseud of the guitarist for the punk band The Cramps - I think it's a double meaning, IV for intravenous?). So I've overthought it and could never use it myself. Also, it was a little cheapened in my mind by the celeb child named Blue Ivy (I forget who her parents were but I think the name is gimmicky).Iris is a name I didn't really care much for until more recently. I thought it was just okay. I guess because I'm not a big fan of -is endings. Now I really like it a lot, since encountering a young girl named Iris, and since bothering to learn that it's more than just the name of the flower. I have never thought of eyes when I see it as a name.- mirfak
