I think [name_f]Sylvia[/name_f] and [name_f]Edith[/name_f] “fit” very well with the older siblings (especially [name_f]Marguerite[/name_f]). [name_f]Rowena[/name_f] goes better with [name_m]Tennyson[/name_m] but I’m not feeling love for her with [name_f]Marguerite[/name_f] (although [name_f]Maggie[/name_f] and [name_f]Ro[/name_f] sound kind of cute together :)). I’m going to choose the lush and lyrical [name_f]Sylvia[/name_f].

My choices

#1 [name_f]Sylvia[/name_f]
#2 [name_f]Rowena[/name_f]

I love the name [name_f]Sylvia[/name_f]! I knew a little girl named [name_f]Sylvia[/name_f] a few years ago, and fell in love with it (partly because she was such a sweetheart!).

[name_f]Sylvia[/name_f] [name_f]Mae[/name_f] works beautifully with [name_m]Tennyson[/name_m] [name_m]Hugh[/name_m] and [name_f]Marguerite[/name_f] [name_f]Jane[/name_f]!

I vote for [name_f]Rowena[/name_f]. [name_f]Sylvia[/name_f] is pretty too, but it always reminds me of my 2nd grade teacher who is now in her 60s, although I do know one little girl with the name. I love [name_u]Rowen[/name_u], so I like [name_f]Rowena[/name_f] as well. It also reminds me of the beautiful singing girl in the movie “Mr. [name_u]Holland[/name_u]'s Opus” named [name_f]Rowena[/name_f] [name_u]Morgan[/name_u].

My top choice is [name_f]Sylvia[/name_f] [name_f]Mae[/name_f].

My favourite of the three names is [name_f]Edith[/name_f], but with [name_f]Mae[/name_f] it sounds a bit too heavy, so I voted for [name_f]Rowena[/name_f] [name_f]Mae[/name_f]. I’m not a fan of [name_f]Sylvia[/name_f] in general.

My personal favorite of your top three is [name_f]Sylvia[/name_f]. However, I think [name_f]Rowena[/name_f] is a much better fit style wise with your other children. I love all three names though so I don’t think you can go wrong.

I love all 3, but [name_f]Rowena[/name_f] ([name_f]Ro[/name_f]-enn-a) sounds best with [name_f]Mae[/name_f] and with the other kids. I love it.

I love that [name_f]Sylvia[/name_f] and [name_m]Tennyson[/name_m] are both poets!

[name_f]Sylvie[/name_f] [name_f]Mae[/name_f] is absolutely perfect! [name_f]Rowena[/name_f] isn’t my style, and I detest [name_f]Edith[/name_f]. I think it is ugly.

is so lovely!

[name_f]Sylvia[/name_f] is fine, but not so lovely to me.

[name_f]Rowena[/name_f] is fair, [name_f]Sylvia[/name_f] is dark-haired. Would this help?

Ooh, [name_f]Sylvia[/name_f] and [name_f]Rowena[/name_f] are both gorgeous and fit perfectly with your other kids’ names. [name_f]Edith[/name_f] I’m not feeling as much. I voted for [name_f]Sylvia[/name_f] because the meaning makes it extra appealing in my opinion.

My number one pick would be [name_f]Rowena[/name_f]! Second choice would be [name_f]Sylvia[/name_f], which fits just slightly better with [name_f]Marguerite[/name_f]. I like [name_f]Edith[/name_f], but I don’t really think it fits - it feels too tame next to [name_m]Tennyson[/name_m] and [name_f]Marguerite[/name_f].

[name_f]Edith[/name_f] is so adorable! It is so classic and beautiful yet it fits in well. The same goes for [name_f]Sylvia[/name_f], but I do not like it as much as [name_f]Edith[/name_f].

As for [name_f]Rowena[/name_f], I am not a fan. I think it does follow a similar trend with your other children with more unusual names, but it isn’t as appealing as [name_f]Edith[/name_f] and [name_f]Sylvia[/name_f] to me.

I love both [name_f]Sylvia[/name_f] and [name_f]Edith[/name_f]! I like them both equally, but I opted for [name_f]Sylvia[/name_f], because I liked the full combo more than [name_f]Edith[/name_f] [name_f]Mae[/name_f]. [name_f]Rowena[/name_f] [name_f]Mae[/name_f] is lovely, too; I just like [name_f]Sylvia[/name_f] and [name_f]Edith[/name_f] more, personally.

Good luck!

THIS. IS. SO. HARD. I love your children’s names, and I love [name_f]Sylvia[/name_f] [name_f]Mae[/name_f] and [name_f]Rowena[/name_f] [name_f]Mae[/name_f]… I think we may have similar tastes.

Is [name_f]Edith[/name_f] a dark horse for you? It’s feeling dark horsey to me. Honestly, though, [name_f]Sylvia[/name_f] and [name_f]Rowena[/name_f] are just too wonderful and they pull ahead of [name_f]Edith[/name_f].

I am, after much deliberation (seriously, I don’t usually spend twenty minutes trying to decide), going with [name_f]Rowena[/name_f] [name_f]Mae[/name_f] - I think it’s more offbeat, like [name_m]Tennyson[/name_m] and [name_f]Marguerite[/name_f]. [name_m]Tennyson[/name_m] is familiar and strong and yet light and uncommon, and [name_f]Marguerite[/name_f] is classic but one of the lesser used versions of [name_f]Margaret[/name_f]. [name_f]Rowena[/name_f] is quirky but still hits that sweet familiar spot. Plus, I’d love to meet a little girl named [name_f]Rowena[/name_f].
