What do you think of Sybil for a girl? Honest opinions needed.

Love it - it was on our list, but we are trying to move away form the 'old lady' thing!

I really like Sybil, although I prefer Sybilla as to me it's more of a name. I did ancient Greek so always think "a sibyl", ie a prophetess.
Love it though, fits the current trend, but I think it wont be over-popular.

I know a little Sybil and she gets 'Sybi' for short - v.v. cute. I'm not sure how well it would age though.
