About Ivey
Ivey can be considered an alternate spelling of the botanical name Ivy, but it also has separate origins as a surname. For the Anglo-Saxon Ivey line, Ivey means "son of Ive," while for the English-Norman Iveys, it means "person from Ivoy," a commune in the Cher department of France.
Regardless, Ivey's recent feats — amongst the fastest-rising names of 2023 and the newest additions to the US Top 1000 — are likely attributed to the success of Ivy.
Ivey is also given to boys.
Pronounced I-vee.
As of October 2026, Ivey ranked #926 in US births in 2025 SSA, peaked at #788 in 2024.
