Is [name_f]Sylvie[/name_f] to much of a nickname and can it work on an adult? Is [name_f]Sylvia[/name_f] too outdated?
Any middle name suggestions? Or do you think [name_f]Sylvie[/name_f]/Sylvia work better as middle names.
Both are lovely, but I prefer [name_f]Sylvia[/name_f]. It seems perfectly fresh, not outdated!
Sylvia [name_f]Juliet[/name_f] (on my user card)
[name_f]Sylvia[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f]
[name_f]Sylvia[/name_f] [name_f]Violet[/name_f]
[name_f]Sylvia[/name_f] [name_f]Rose[/name_f]
[name_f]Sylvia[/name_f] [name_f]Catherine[/name_f]
my sister is named [name_f]Silvia[/name_f] so I might be kinda biased in my vote…I voted [name_f]Sylvia[/name_f]!
But I would say it depends on the other names, middles or siblings. I mean like this: I think [name_f]Sylvie[/name_f] would sound better with [name_f]Alice[/name_f] and [name_m]Edmund[/name_m], and [name_f]Sylvia[/name_f] might go perfectly with [name_f]Avalon[/name_f] and [name_m]Ambrose[/name_m].
I don’t particularly like either (no reason, just nms), but if I had to choose I’d go with [name_f]Sylvia[/name_f]. [name_f]Sylvie[/name_f] could also be a nn for [name_f]Sylvia[/name_f] so you’d get the best of both worlds.
[name_m]Hi[/name_m] there.
I know that [name_f]Sylvie[/name_f] is a stand alone name on its own, but it does sound nick-namey to me. And I think if you also like [name_f]Sylvia[/name_f], you may as well do [name_f]Sylvia[/name_f] nn [name_f]Sylvie[/name_f]. It’s a very obvious & natural nn, plus then you get to use two beautiful names!
A few mn ideas-

[name_f]Sylvie[/name_f]! 
I love nickname-names, but I don’t even think of it as a nickname—it’s just [name_u]French[/name_u], like [name_f]Rosalie[/name_f], [name_f]Lucie[/name_f] and [name_f]Emilie[/name_f]. The abbreviated ending sounds chic to me. Definitely think it’s wearable for an adult.

I love [name_f]Sylvie[/name_f]–it feels sweet, lively, and charming yet plenty solid enough to stand alone. I don’t care for [name_f]Sylvia[/name_f], for whatever reason.

I actually know an adult [name_f]Sylvie[/name_f] (mid 20’s) and she wears it well! It doesn’t feel like a nickname at all to me. Also I think it feels more modern and fresh whereas I’ve always found [name_f]Sylvia[/name_f] to be a bit clunky.

I voted [name_f]Sylvie[/name_f] simply because I have fewer associations with it (besides my NB name lol) but either would be beautiful. I’d love to see what combos you’re choosing between because that would make all the difference!
