Ivy-Rose

Girl name · 80 babies recorded · 1974–2025

Ivy-Rose: 80 babies born in Scotland since 1974, given to girls, peaking at 17 births in 2024.

A charming modern double-barreled name, Ivy-Rose combines two beloved botanical classics. Ivy comes from Old English *ifig*, the name of the climbing evergreen plant, while Rose derives from Latin *rosa*, the fragrant flower. Though not a single historical bearer, the name shares its roots with countless notable women—Ivy Compton-Burnett, the English novelist, and Rose Leslie, the Scottish actress known for *Game of Thrones*. Place connections are subtle: Ivy appears in several Scottish street names, and Rose lends its scent to the Aberdeenshire village of Rosehearty. A popular choice in Scotland since the 2000s, Ivy-Rose reflects a wider trend for hyphenated nature names, blending two floral favourites into a name that feels both timeless
