I love the name [name_f]Sylvie[/name_f]. But I think [name_u]Wren[/name_u] [name_f]Isobel[/name_f] has better flow.

I prefer [name_u]Wren[/name_u] [name_f]Isobel[/name_f]. However, I think it would be prettier as [name_u]Wren[/name_u] [name_f]Isabelle[/name_f] or [name_f]Isabelle[/name_f] [name_u]Wren[/name_u].

Personally, I’ve never warmed to the name [name_f]Sylvie[/name_f] even though I adore the meaning. I think because it reminds me of Sylph which has connotations of a cold & soulless mythic being (at least that’s how I interpret the name). However, [name_u]Wren[/name_u] is sweet and [name_f]Isabelle[/name_f]/ [name_f]Isobel[/name_f] is timeless, historic, regal & beautiful. It makes for an enchanting combination. Cheers :slight_smile:

I think [name_f]Isobel[/name_f] flows better than [name_f]Sylvie[/name_f] with [name_u]Wren[/name_u] as a first name.

I agree with others that I like [name_f]Sylvie[/name_f] better as a name, but it doesn’t flow as well as [name_f]Isobel[/name_f] in this case. I also dislike middles that sound like nicknames unless that happens to go well with the last name.

Neither flow very well but I love both [name_f]Sylvie[/name_f] and [name_f]Isobel[/name_f]. [name_u]Wren[/name_u] Isobela has better flow if that is an option for you.

I hear a longer name “Wrenisobel” so that combo blends into each other. I think the [name_u]Wren[/name_u] [name_f]Sylvie[/name_f] combo sounds like two separate names which is ideal. Each name in a combo should be distinctly heard not an extension of the previous name.

[name_u]Wren[/name_u] [name_f]Isobel[/name_f]. [name_u]Love[/name_u] it with [name_u]Emerson[/name_u] [name_m]Bear[/name_m].

I like [name_f]Sylvie[/name_f] but not as a middle name. [name_u]Wren[/name_u] [name_f]Isobel[/name_f] (I love this spelling) is beautiful so I voted for that one.
