That's very interesting.... choosing such a masculine name but then raising them genderfluid. Interesting choice. Sylvester Apollo Bear is a neat name, very celebrity-appropriate.
I don't quite understand your logic about Sylvester being "not something someone irl is called"....Sylvester is legitimate. It's a saint's name. There were 3 popes named Sylvester. It's pretty old-fashioned, but plenty of people are called Sylvester in real life.

Well, there's popes who chose the names Formosus and Sixtus, and those sure aren't the kind of names we picture on real ordinary people.
Sylvester has been used on real people, sure, but not all that often. And the few Sylvesters I can think of (Stallone, Sly of the Family Stone, and the cartoon cat) are two celebs and a made-up critter.
