What do you think of the name Silvia Louise? Older sister will be Ella Corinne. Maybe "Silvie" as a possible nickname?

Silvia is spelled without a Y because that's how Shakespeare spelled it, darnit!

We also like the name Cora Elise .... but are afraid it's too close to our other daughter's middle name.

love you spelled it like Shakespeare... he is right because... he is Shakespeare darnit! I love Silvia and Cora, the middle name I most like is Elise (english version of my middle name =P). Not too crazy about Louise though.

I love it!
Cora Elise is very close to your first daughter's name.

I really like it.. I actually like that spelling more than the y spelling.

I like it. :o)

Silvia and Ella sound good together. I like Silvia Louise.

Cora Elise is way too close to Ella Corinne for me.

Looking at Silvia, I could tell that there was something off about it, from the way I usually see it spelled, but I couldn't figure out that it had been the Y. It looks younger that way, but it still sounds old. Silvie is kind of not a great nickname, in my opinion. It just sounds so awkward, and so much bulkier than a nickname should be. Just call her Silvia, it flows off the tongue better.

I like all of them a lot, actually. I never thought about Silvia/Sylvia, but I like it!

I like it.
(Wait...is Silvia normally seen with a 'y'? I've always seen it with an 'i'...)

Anyway~. As far as Silvie goes...it's okay, but personally, I'd just stick with Silvia.

I like it. Just enough uniqueness, IMHO, without being crazy.

I wouldn't use Cora Elise, pretty as it is.

Not my style, but really nice! I like it better than Cora Elise. Much better.

I like it. The nickname Silvie/Sylvie has become a guilty pleasure of mine as of late. Louise has grown on me this year, too. :)

Beautiful name (mind you, I have named a kitten Sylvie, from the Lewis Carroll poem, so I could be biased).
