The quirky, offbeat and energetic Ivy is enjoying a deserved revival, sure to be propelled even higher by its choice by high-profile new parents Beyonce and Jay-Z for baby girl Blue Ivy. Ivy -- associated with clinging vines -- also has an interesting history: ancient Greeks presented an ivy wreath to newlyweds as a symbol of fertility. And no, don't worry about "poison ivy" teasing for your little Ivy.
