I [name]LOVE[/name] [name]Sylvie[/name] the most. for some reason, I don’t like [name]Sylvia[/name] as much. [name]Sylvie[/name], to me, sounds fresh and new and [name]Sylvia[/name] sounds old ladyish. jmho:-)

good luck!

1 [name]Silvia[/name] - I like this Spanish and Italian spelling.
2 [name]Sylvie[/name] - a pretty French spelling.
3 [name]Sylvia[/name] - I like vintage names and [name]Sylvia[/name] is rarely used.
4 [name]Silvie[/name] - this looks strange to me.

If you choose [name]Sylvia[/name], you can always use [name]Sylvie[/name] as her nickname. Two names for the price of one!

[name]Sylvie[/name]! All the way. It feels so lovely and gentle and different, please use that one.

[name]Sylvia[/name]! I adore [name]Sylvia[/name]. [name]Silvia[/name] seems to lack the smooth fluidity of the gorgeous, classic [name]Sylvia[/name], and while I like just [name]Sylvie[/name], I’ve been loving the more classic [name]Sylvia[/name] lately. I do love all the forms, though!

My definite favorite is [name]Sylvia[/name]. I prefer the standard spelling of [name]Sylvia[/name] rather than [name]Silvia[/name]. While the name [name]Sylvie[/name] is very cute, it looks and sounds nicknamey to me.

I love [name]Sylvie[/name]. It’s definitely my favorite. It has a modern and clean feel with a touch of old-fashion thrown in.

I’m really not a fan of either names but I much prefer Sylvie so that gets my vote.

cookiesnatcher · October 29, 2012, 6:20pm

I’m not particularly crazy about either, but I chose [name]Sylvia[/name] because you could always use [name]Sylvie[/name] as a nickname and she would have something more grown-up sounding to fall back on if she wanted. I’m weird about that kind of thing though.

I [name]LOVE[/name] [name]Sylvie[/name]! It is one of my favorites!

I love [name]Sylvie[/name] alone, with this spelling. It’s gorgeous!

[name]Sylvia[/name] is OK, but very middle-aged sounding to me, and I’m not fond of the [name]Si[/name]- spelling.

My favorite is [name]Silvia[/name], but I like [name]Sylvie[/name] too!
