Beryl or Sybil

Beryl or Sybil? Using one would mean the other was off limits forever as they have such a similar sound, so which would you go for?
We love them both (they are dh's top 2 at the moment), so just wondering the general feeling and which you prefer? I think I prefer Beryl, but I have a Pearl already who is nearly 5, so maybe a bit themey?

(Dont worry Mildred fans - it is still in the running along with Jean, Juniper and Miriam!)

neither sorry, your other choices are much nicer

No, don't is not an option you need to choose! I know they wont be everyones taste, but I have loved Beryl since I was a kid, and Sybil has grown on me over the last couple of years!

I do like Jean in a strange way though.

Please don't.
