I like it but then I'm a fan of Lana Del Rey and it reminds me of that.
Plus i have a Sylvie.

Good name 👍

I love Sylvia (Plath fan!)

I think ray is today's mae and I'm not so keen. Sylvia Rachel however...

Was just coming here to say that Ray/Rae is the new Mae/May, and for that reason, I would avoid it.

Sylvia is lovely.

I like it but think Sylvie Ray scans better?
I think I prefer Sylvie to Sylvia though so it might just be that.

See I'm not keen on Sylvie ray sounds to me like a new kind of radiation.

Sylvia is lovely. Sylvia Ray, not so much.

Love Sylvia, but not ma about Ray. It's ok though, just wouldn't be my first choice.

Should say "not mad about" sorry - typo.

Ray can be used as a short form of Mireille, and you don't see many of those.
