Sylvie? Any middle name suggestions?

Expecting DD number 2 next month. Anyone have any thoughts on the name Sylvie for this baby? Big sister is Grace Clementine. We'd also love some middle name suggestions if anyone has got any :)

Thank for the suggestions everyone! We've narrowed it down to Sylvie June, Sylvie Meredith, Sylvie Jane, Sylvie Marguerite, Sylvie Emmeline and Sylvie Eloise. Any input on the best of those middle names?

We have a Sylvie but our girls don’t have middle names so can’t offer any advice but think it needs to be longish - Sylvie Elizabeth, Sylvie Alicia, Sylvie Rebecca, Sylvie Gabriella - something like that!

Stunning - so gorgeous, I’ve loved the name Sylvie since I was a kid and first heard the eponymous St Etienne song. I wish it wasn’t so trendy now but at least it’s not Top 100 yet so hopefully it won’t date too much (although apparently it is considered old fashioned in its native France, a bit like the longer Sylvia is still for some in the UK).

ETA: Any family names you could use as a middle? Preferably something more classic (since Sylvie is quite trendy) and not ending in an “ee” sound would flow better. Otherwise I think something along the lines of Sylvie Isabelle sounds nice.
