I love Sylvie but I'm not really into Sylvia.

It's in my top three names for girls. If I used Sylvia, though, I'd definitely call her Sylvie.

I like 'Sylivie' more than 'Sylvia'.It reminds me of Sibyl.

It's great. Sylvia is one of my favorite names. So crisp, clear, and elegant. Sylvie is the same.

I like it a lot. I worry that it's one of those natural-popularity-progression names, though. Once the general population realizes how overused Olivia is, Lydia and Sylvia are top candidates. You might find yourself riding a huge, unexpected popularity wave. Or not. Can't predict the future.

Love it.

I love Sylvia: it's my favorite girl's name and I would definitely name my daughter Sylvia. Sylvie is a cute NN, but I myself would use Sylvi (it's more proper in the Finnish context).

Adore. Hated it for years because I had a principal in school named Sylvia who was former military and commanded the school like she was still in the service and we were new recruits.But now years removed from that, I've come to love almost all Sylv- / Silv- names.
I think I like Silvia a little more than Sylvia, but I love both and I adore Sylvie even more, but I would only use it as a nickname.

I like it! It's pretty and cute and has a lot of character and woodsiness while also being sophisticated.
I generally prefer Sylva, Sylvan (m), Sylvana, etc. but I started liking Sylvie after reading "The Great Good Thing".
I also like that it sounds like silver even though it has nothing to do with silver.

I absolutely love Sylvia and Sylvie (as a full name or nn). She feels sophisticated and beautiful, as well as fun, playful, energetic, and with a hint of fire and feistiness. I really like the vintage feel and meaning too. I wanted to use it as a middle (for Sylvia Pankhurst) but I haven’t found anywhere that it quite fits.
