Really want a pretty, vintage name to go with Sylvie that is underused but not too out there. We’ve finally agreed on the below shortlist so just wanted some help to pick a favourite.

Pearl
Olive
April
Clementine (Clemmie)
Etta (Ettie)
Theodora - (Dot, Dora, Teddy etc - love the variety of nicknames for this)
Mabel

Would love to hear people’s thoughts.
Thanks!

I think Pearl goes best with Sylvie

not keen on Pearl and nowhere near as pretty as Sylvie...think its the 'hard' start
I like Etta but again is a bit short if you have a short surname as well

Delphine
Alice
Clara
Chloe
Betsy (Elizabeth could be full name if you want all the options)

Love all those names but I have to go with Pearl.Flowers

From your list definitely Pearl or April.

I like Hester, could get Etta as a nn at a push maybe

Edie is nice too

Or Henrietta nn Etta is the obvious one
