Sybil?

[OriginalGreenGiant]

OR Sibyl...which is apparently a less commonly used name (although it looks a bit odd to me).

Thoughts?

Sybil. I adore this name. Sybil Buck was one of the coolest models ever. Always had this name on my list.

I mean this in the BEST way - my grandma was called Sybil (actually, it was spelt Sibyl as my great-grandad spelt it "wrong" on her birth certificate!) - she was an amazing lady and I would call my non-existent DD this name in a heartbeat.

I don't know--it just doesn't have a very nice sound to me. "Sibble."

I like it.
My first thought was Fawlty Towers though

Ha ha. No.

I think I like Cecil a bit more

I knew an inspirational Sybil, so it is yes from me.

I like it.

Sorry meant Cecile. There's also Celeste and Cecily. Sylvia or Sylvie

I loved Sybil in downton, does that help?

faulty towers

not for me

Spelling would be Sybil. It's a lovely name but I make a different association than Fawlty Towers or Dowton...

Sally Field and her many personalities, nearly 40 years ago

Really like it, reminds me of Downton, like the nn Sibbie also!

Love it!

Reminds me of cybil shepherd- big character! Seems fun though

Love it

Sybil - I really like this as a name.

I know a Sybil (she is 11) and I like it. It suits her as well - creative but not overly girly, knows her own mind.

Her mum used to get "Oh. Is that a family name?" a lot at first, but not so much now

Love it think you could spell it either way

Fawlty towers or multiple personality disorder. So its a big no from me.

Sybilla is also lovely. I like Sybil.

I do like the name, Sally Field aside!

As long as you don't go on to have a Basil, it should be OK.

But as Fawlty Towers shows no sign of leaving its position in the top few most-loved British sitcoms, that's the association a heck of a lot of people will make.

Farty towels too here!

I know a Sybilla which I think is such a pretty name. I'd never heard it of it before
