    Thank you, I think we are favoring Ivy, too. But do you think it is ok to have two very unusual boys names (to the point that people will exclaim, "oh! I've never heard that before!") and then a very familiar girl name (that everyone has heard of)? I think that's the only niggling issue stopping me from commiting to Ivy. It seems slightly unbalanced to have something so familiar with two such unfamiliar names. Kind of like my style is all over the place? Incidentally, what style would you call a sibset of Lorcan, Gregor and Ivy? I do love the nature-inspired, wild plant imagery of Ivy with the rugged windswept feeling I get from Lorcan and Gregor (I imagine Irish and Scottish hills and forests...). I get the same feeling from Sage as I do from Ivy, of nature and ruggedness, but I'm not sure about all the 'G'! I guess it boils down to:

    Ivy - love, but too familiar?
    Sage - love, definitely not too familiar, but too much G? GreGor and saGe??
    What 'style' do we have going on here?

    I love Ivy with Lorcan & Gregor. I don't think Ivy is too familiar at all. And Gregor isn't unheard of, in my opinion at least. Lorcan is the lease familiar but I still don't think it's an issue. If you named your 3rd child Sage, I wouldn't know if it was a girl or a boy without seeing the child. Go with Ivy!!!!

    Sage is my favorite. Ivy and Hazel are a close second. I don't like Willa or Sadie.

    I vote for Ivy; I think it works well with Lorcan and Gregor. I also like Sadie, but not sure it fits with the name style.
