Help[Opinions] Re: Arnold and Sylvia
in reply to a message by Ottilie
Sylvia is pretty though I have a hard time shaking the old association. I can see it becoming popular again, someday. Sylvie would be an adorable nn.
I don't approve of Arnold, however. I just can't see it as anything other than ugly, and I suspect a lot of little boys wouldn't want that name. It would only be bearable if he were always called Arn.
Arnold and Sylvia together are a rather dated sibset. I'd use one and then pair it with a more contemporary name.
