[Opinions] Two new Swedish babies
A friend's sister had her first child, a boy named Silas. It is pronounced SEE-lus in Swedish, and is rather unusual here (though still way more common in the last years than it has ever been before).My neighbours' daughter Anna had her second child, a girl named Lykke. Big brother is Otto. (My sister, mother and me were hoping for another palindrome name for this family, but no luck. :P)

I really like both Silas and Lykke.
I'm with Quill on this one though; I pronounce Silas like SIE-lus.

I prefer the pronunciation SIE-lus, but it's a cool name nonetheless.Lykke makes me think of Lykke Li too much, but it's not a bad name.
