My French name in high school was Sylvie, so as you can imagine, I'm quite biased in favour of it. I also love Sylvia and (though to a much lesser extent) Silvia.

Sylvie works better with names that begin with consonants, since the vowel-starting names will all sound schwa-y and turn Sylvie Alice (for instance) into Sylvia Lis. Or Sylvie Isadora into Sylvia Zadora. Sylvie Ursula's the only one I can think of that doesn't do that when I say it. So I think U names would be safe, and names that start with the "yoo" sound, like Sylvie Euphronia and Sylvie Eudoxia.

I want to put Kana in there with Sylvie, but Kana and Sylvie don't flow no matter what way you put them together. D:
