Thoughts on Silus

Do you prefer the typical Silas spelling and if so why?
Plus what middles do you see flowing with this name? I have a mismatch of some put together but I don’t know…
Which, if any, would you use?

Silus Torrence
Silus Lucien
Silus Lucio
Silus Eben Basile
Silus Endymion Basile
Silus Laszlo

I like your spelling! It different without being too
Different.

I much prefer (indeed, I love!) [name_m]Silas[/name_m].

But I also like [name_m]Cyrus[/name_m] and [name_m]Sirius[/name_m] as alternatives.

When skimming over [name_m]Silus[/name_m] I had to pause and figure out how to pronounce it, because I do say “as” a bit differently from “us” (it’s subtle, but not quite the same). It also makes me think of the world stylus. Sorry if that sounds harsh, I’m sure if I knew a [name_m]Silus[/name_m] I’d get used to the alternate spelling in no time.

I prefer the [name_m]Silas[/name_m] spelling -it just feels simpler.

[name_m]Silas[/name_m] [name_m]Endymion[/name_m] [name_m]Basile[/name_m] would be amazing!!

I really like [name_m]Silas[/name_m] , spelled this way. I have a name that I am constantly spelling for people and it can be frustrating so I tend to lean on the [name_u]Sage[/name_u] / common spelling unless it has significance/ honour or in the middle name spot

[name_m]Silus[/name_m] [name_m]Lucien[/name_m] gets my vote from the options
