Is Ivy really that popular?

Question

I see the name a lot on this app, but I have never met one in person, and I am a teacher. I am also African American and live mostly around black people, so maybe it’s not a common name about black people… I’m asking because I like the name, but I don’t want to name my child something that’s super popular.

Answer

I’ve also never met a black girl named Ivy. It is not a popular name in the community. That’s why I tend to like more “white” names because most black people don’t use them so to me it’s unique. 
I’ve met a lot of black kids with “white” names like: 
Austin 
Mary 
Rachel
Hunter 
Evan 
Wesley 
Mason 
Riley (for boys) 
Nathaniel 
Maxwell 
Wyatt
Carter 
Alexander 
Theodore 
Jackson 
Sebastian 
Grayson 
Dylan
Dawson 
Ryan 
Jeffery 
Owen 
Isabella 
Hailey 
Hope 
Charlotte 
Logan 
Liam 
Brielle 
Lacey 
Connor 
Zachary 
Caleb 
Kyle 
Bentley 
Mackenzie 
Chase 
Peyton 
Cheryl 
Judah 
But have never met an Ivy. 
** I say “white names” as in: names most commonly used among white people**

Answer

I've never met anyone named Ivy and I was a teacher's assistant in an equally mixed caucasian/African american community ❤ I think it's beautiful.

Answer

I personally don’t see the issue people have with a name being popular. If you like it, then use it. I personally don’t know anyone named Ivy. At the same time, my best friend growing up was named Samantha and we loved it. It was like our own secret club.

I LOVE the name Ivy! We named our second daughter Ivy, and she’s the only Ivy I know. She literally gets compliments everywhere on her name. Ivy Belle 🥰

Answer

I love the name Ivy! I actually almosr changed my name to Ivy when I was younger. One of my great grandparents was named Ivy. I went to school with a girl named Ivy, she was black, and I know a 13 year old who is named Ivy and she's white.  I think it's a lovely name! It'll age well and is a slightly forgotten classic.
