Sylvia, Adele (Adelle) or Ivy?

Question

Why?

They're three of my favorite names =)

Thank you if you took the time to write a thoughtful response.

Answer 1

Ivy. one of my favorite girl names. Old fashioned but not in a Mildred-y kind of way.

so what if it's a plant? So are Rose, Lilly, Daisy, Violet . . . all lovely names.

Answer 2

Ivy is pretty. Sylvia and Adele are too old fashioned. :-)

Answer 3

I love Adele

It is such a beautiful , uncommon name

xx

Answer 4

I like Ivy.  Sylvia to me is a last name and adelle sounds like a princess' name.  Ivy is unique.  

Answer 5

adelle

Answer 6

All are very nice classic (but acceptably modern) names. I think you'll do fine either way.

Honestly, this is one of those times when all names are perfect and I don't have any complaints either way.

Though I would spell Adele in the traditional way - Adele.

Personally, my favorite is Ivy, followed by a tie between Sylvia and Adele. It's very close though!

Answer 7

Sylvia is not that bad and I'm not sure why.

Answer 8

I like Ivy its not common. Plus its my best friends name lol. Good luck

Answer 9

I liked Adele, it's a pretty name but there's ton of jokes that come with it so I won't really recommend. I like Ivy or Sylvia. I'm leaning more towards Sylvia cause I've yet to meet someone with that name and I think it's very beautiful. Classy, traditional but still modern to use.

Answer 10

I think Ivy is the nicest, I do not like adele at all...she WILL be teased growing up with Ivy, but it will be worth it

Answer 11

Shayla Adelle

Answer 12

Ivy! cute and not common.

Answer 13

I love them all, and Im pretty picky about baby names. I guess in order, I like adele, Ivy, sylvia. nice choices.. good luck to you .

Answer 14

I like Sylvia the most, because Adele doesn't seem like a name to me personally, though it is, and Ivy is just too old-fashioned, yet soon to be trendy names, like Lily. Sylvia is a classic name, and stands out because it is a strong name for a girl.  

Answer 15

i looooove ivy!! adele is nice to(like the little girl from Jane Eyre).

but i dont really care for sylvia. its not as sophisticated as the other two are. maybe something a little different like olivia?

Answer 16

Sylvia: I don't like this name, it's old-fashioned but it makes me think of the term sylivia, and you don't want that to be associated with your sweet little girl. I know it could be considered classic because it was popular a little while back but I personally don't like the sound of it.

Adele: I have a friend named Adelle and I love the name. Personally I like it spelled with two 'l's because I think it looks better on paper that way. This name has a certain elegance about it that I love and since you don't hear it alot it makes it all the better. However, she did have a boyfriend that called her Dellie, which I didn't like, the nickname I use for her is Addie, which I also think is adorable.

Ivy: I don't think it's a strong enough first name for a little girl, don't get my wrong I like short names but this one just doesn't feel complete to me. I like it as a middle name, it's different, and I like that its unique like Adelle but its just not first name material to me.

I'd suggest Adelle Ivy but I don't think since both names start with vowels that they sound right together.

Middle names for Adelle:

Adelle Lydia (My friend's name)

Adelle Marie

Adelle Grace

Adelle Hope

Adelle Christine

Answer 17

ADELLE!!! :D

Answer 18

I like all of them.

Reah Silvia was the mother of Romulus and Remus, the founders of Rome, and it means forest. I'm a big mythology geek, and I like trees. Also it's just a very pretty, feminine name.

Adele means "noble." I was considering Adela for my own child, until I found out that I wasn't having a daughter.

Ivy is just really pretty, and makes me think of lovely green growing things.  

Answer 19

adele

sylvia sounds too old

and ivy is a plant
