Not recorded in BT(SC); cf. BTS s.v. ife. Grattan / Singer translate "Herbive", Cockayne (1962,iii,9/23) translates "ivy".
Cf. WW 301/12 Iua, iue and Agnus Castus (Brodin 1950,165): Iua is an herbe þat men clepe jue. Also cf. Brodin (1950,165). Old names for A. Chamaepitys: IVA ARTHRITICA, IVA ARTHETICA (Marzell 2000,1,165). Also cf. Murray (1888, s.v. Herb Ive.) and Balzli (1931,35): "Iua - Erdweihrauch, Ajuga Chamaepitys Schreb. oder eine Verwandte; Bisamgarbe, Achillea moschata Jacq., oder Iva, Ajuga Iva Schreb." Pollington (2000,134) suggests that it probably is a spelling variant of →īfig.
