Thank goodness! When I saw
Ivy (m) I feared that a boy had been named
Ivy!
I've got a
Holly niece, OK stepniece, who is pleasant but somehow not quite comfortable in her own skin. Can't put my finger on it. Generally speaking I'm not keen on -olly names, except
Polly which I like a lot.
Dolly, however,
Holly,
Molly and
Ollie just don't do it for me. But
Holly is a wonderful plant!
Ivy, though, is a pain of a plant. Gloomy, invasive and unforgivably difficult to get rid of.
Together they make a fine carol, though.
