Dp absolutely loves it, but I'm not convinced. It's to go with the last name Massot. Any opinion (good or bad) is welcome Smile

Great name. I know a Silas who is late teens now, he's a great young man.

I would hesitate slightly because there might be too many esses there, but I think I could get over that.

Love it.

First time I heard it was a character in Da Vinci Code.

I know one, 12 or so. He’s absolutely lovely so I have positive associations to the name.

Too many sss’s — sounds like a slithering snake. In fact Silas has always reminded me of a sly snake sloughing it’s skin.
Simon, Simeon or Sebastian are better options

I like the name Silas but that's far too many S's with your surname.

Hate it. And very overused in the country I live in. Maybe that's why I hate it.

Reminds me of Silas Blisset in hollyoaks.. He was a serial killer. Not a fan. But your choice.

I absolutely love Silas! Would suit any age really well.

DramaAlpaca · 20/08/2021 23:31

It makes me think of silage, so it's a no from me.

Toddlerteaplease · 20/08/2021 23:32

Silas Brown in Sherlock Holmes, Slicer blaze. Not a nice man.

Booboosweet · 20/08/2021 23:39

Not my favourite name.

KimDeals · 20/08/2021 23:41

Silas Marner… I’ve never read it but you’ve reminded me of it. It’s a lovely name!

Reminds me of the summer holiday tv show that we used to call Silage as it was crap
