Medically, a fever is not defined as a fever until body temp is 100.4 degrees Fahrenheit (38 degrees Celsius).

The dot used in lowercase "i" and "j" is called a tittle.

Streets in Washington DC which are named by numbers or letters are so named in ascending order emanating outward from the Capitol, eastward and westward for numbered streets, northward and southward for lettered streets. After the letters A through Z (excluding J) are used up, streets are given one-syllable names that start with each letter in order. When one-syllable names from A through Z are used up, the progression repeats with two-syllable names, then three-syllable names.
Caveat: This only applies to the basic grid streets, and there are many streets and avenues that cut across the grid or fill in between grid streets that do not follow this naming pattern.

And just to be clear, you're stating that as fact is incorrect. No one knows for certain why it evolved into Ivy. There are multiple theories.

Well done, Chris...

“You are never going to get an answer on where the name came from,” said Dartmouth College professor Jere Daniell. Daniell is the Dartmouth history department’s expert on the history of New England and is the unofficial historian of the college.

Some theorize that Ivy is actually a misnomer and the league was originally called the IV League because it consisted of four schools: Harvard, Yale, Princeton and Dartmouth.
There is little evidence to ever support this being a term people actually used, Daniell said.

The story with the “most currency,” according to Daniell, is that the term arose from “casual use by a reporter.”

I never looked into it, but just always assumed it was because all the schools in it were very old and probably had a lot of ivy-covered buildings.
