Sybil....what kind of vibe do you get from it?

From reading old threads it certainly seems to be love it or loathe it.

I'm really loving this name at the moment. For me I think it has a quirky yet timeless vibe. I think it would be so sweet on a little girl yet perfect for a woman.

I also love the unusual sound it has iykwim?

Do you think it goes well with Eli & Aphra?

TIA

January I'm afraid I know a sweet little girl called Sybil (and also have a friend called Sybil) and I still think Fawlty Towers Blush

Doesn't help that my friend Sybil has a brother called Basil (seriously.)

Ha...are the parents huge Fawlty Towers fans? So funny! Grin

Poor things! Were they named after the characters? Surely not!

Well you would think so but apparently their parents just liked the names and were amazed when people pointed out the Fawlty Towers connection....

Poor things had a hard time growing up.
