This is such a fun, spunky sounding nickname! I like it as a nickname for Ignatius but Ignatius seems almost bombastic to my ears so instead I would consider using it as a nickname for Irving, which I quite like and would actually use.

It sounds super disgusting and it definitely does not sound masculine.

I actually really like this name, I named one of my cartoon characters this! Well, it's their real name, they actually go by their nickname.
Also, anyone else commonly associates this name with smart people? I don't know why I do, I just do.

I think that this is a great nickname for Ignatius, but definitely not good as a full name.

This name is so ugly, and I can't stand Iggy Azalea. Also, it rhymes with the word "piggy".

Iggy is the name of a character on Hey Arnold. He is most prominently featured in the episode "Arnold Betrays Iggy", where Arnold finds out that Iggy wears bunny pajamas, and later accidentally breaks his promise not to tell anyone about it.

I'm really, really sorry if I am being rude to people with this name, but it sounds a bit tacky and uncreative. I also don't like it because of the "igg" sound. Usually I am fine with names with an "ie" or "y" sound (like Kelsey, Nancy, and so on), but this one I guess I have a problem with. Again, I'm sorry that I might be being mean to people with this name...

Since we're Dutch, living in Holland, we thought it would be safe to name our soon Iggy, since we have different words for eggs and disgusting and everything.
We both knew a guy withe the name Iggy, and even for a grown up it is a real cool and different name. He's now three years old, and certainly not just any guy.

Well, Iggy Pop has gotten away with this silly little name just fine, but I wouldn't urge people to try the same with their offspring any more than I'd urge them to give the name Prince a try just because the singer by that name has been successful. There are worse names out there, but this one seems quite dated and immature, and it won't suit just any guy.

There is Iggy Koopa from a few Super Mario Bros. games. Aside from that, this name makes me think of eggs.

If you name somebody Iggy it sounds like you are naming your child gross, disgusting or icky. That name sounds so gross and terrible.
