Help me choose:
[name]Marin[/name] [name]Lake[/name]
[name]Marin[/name] [name]Elena[/name]
[name]Silvia[/name] [name]Lake[/name]
[name]Silvia[/name] [name]Iris[/name]
[name]Marin[/name] [name]Elena[/name] gets my vote! It’s both cool and girly.
[name]Silvia[/name] [name]Lake[/name] or [name]Iris[/name] sounds too much the color silver describing a lake or a flower to me.
[name]Silvia[/name] [name]Lake[/name] is my favourite. I don’t get the colour thing from it at all…
[name]Silvia[/name] [name]Iris[/name] gets my vote (:
[name]Hi[/name]!
[name]Marin[/name] [name]Lake[/name] - Meet me at [name]Marin[/name] [name]Lake[/name]! This is pretty, but it definitely sounds like a place, especially since [name]Marin[/name] is a place.
[name]Marin[/name] [name]Elena[/name] - This is very pretty, but it also seems very repetitive in the sound patterns with [name]Mar/name [name]El/namea, doesn’t it? [name]Elena[/name] [name]Marin[/name] would be better, I think…
[name]Silvia[/name] [name]Lake[/name] - This makes me think of [name]Veronica[/name] [name]Lake[/name]!
[name]Silvia[/name] [name]Iris[/name] - [name]Don[/name]'t like the back-to-back vowel sounds as much…
Have you considered [name]Maren[/name], which means “of the sea,” to get your water ([name]Lake[/name]) thing in there? I think [name]Maren[/name] [name]Sylvia[/name] would be perfect for you!
Good luck!
[name]Lemon[/name] 
[name]Marin[/name] [name]Lake[/name]- I don’t like these together, just because of the meanings, Sea and [name]Lake[/name], they cancel each other out
[name]Marin[/name] [name]Elena[/name]- What about [name]Marin[/name] [name]Helena[/name] (huh-lay-nuh) to give it better flow
[name]Silvia[/name] [name]Lake[/name]- [name]Wood[/name] and [name]Lake[/name], now that’s what I’m talking about!
[name]Silvia[/name] [name]Iris[/name]- I like this as well
I like [name]Marin[/name] [name]Helena[/name] and [name]Silvia[/name] [name]Lake[/name] the best.
[name]Silvia[/name] [name]Iris[/name] gets my vote. Although I prefer [name]Sylvia[/name], it is a beautiful name either way. Good luck!
[name]Leah[/name] said just what I was thinking. I prefer the [name]Sylvia[/name] spelling, but [name]Silvia[/name]/[name]Sylvia[/name] [name]Iris[/name] is lovely. Woods + flower that often grows wild in the woods, very nice meaning together.
I think we have it narrowed down to [name]Silvia[/name] [name]Lake[/name] and [name]Marin[/name] [name]Elena[/name].
[name]Sylvia[/name] [name]Lake[/name]!
But I’m biased. I named one of my daughters [name]Sylvie[/name].
[name]Marin[/name] [name]Elena[/name] definitely!!!
[name]Hi[/name]!
I’ll vote for [name]Silvia[/name] [name]Lake[/name], because I agree that [name]Marin[/name] [name]Elena[/name] has a lot of N… I would spell it [name]Sylvia[/name], though, because I think of “silver lake” when I see [name]Silvia[/name] [name]Lake[/name]… Not a bad thing, though…
What about [name]Silvia[/name] [name]Marin[/name]?
Good luck! 
Definitely [name]Sylvia[/name] [name]Lake[/name] Beautiful!!
after your narrowing down to 2…my vote now goes to [name]Silvia[/name] [name]Lake[/name]…love the retro 40s vibe to it (:
[name]Silvia[/name] [name]Lake[/name] is lovely
Thanks for everyone’s feedback! I do like the suggestions to combine silvia (or sylvie) and marin (or marina perhaps)
Oh and just to confuse things - my husband decided he likes the name [name]Amelie[/name].
I’m with cecily and lemon - I love [name]Marin[/name] [name]Sylvia[/name] or [name]Sylvia[/name] [name]Marin[/name].
My personal favorite spelling is Mairin - had to throw that out there if you hadn’t considered it! [name]Sylvia[/name] Mairin. [name]Sylvia[/name] [name]Marin[/name]. [name]Both[/name] lovely!
[name]Sheridan[/name]
[name]MARIN[/name] [name]ELENA[/name]!
[name]Marin[/name] [name]Elena[/name] gets my vote. Definitely [name]Marin[/name], whichever middle name you choose! best wishes!
