Sibella or Sybella?

Which would be your 'default' spelling? What do you think of the name?

Sybella. I'm not sure why, I just like the look of the Y better. I really love the name.

Sibella. I have a tendency to dislike names with a "y" in place of another vowel because of that stupid trend. You know, names like Landyn or Londyn.

sybella i think of it kinda like Sybil

I think my default spelling would be Sybilla, actually. Not really a fan of the name, but it's not horrible.

Every time I think the name, I think of this:

I like Sybilla.

Don't like it at all, but with the Y it looks less awful.

Sibylla

I think I like Sibella better, even though Sybella makes a bit more sense (like Sybil). Part of me thinks it sounds kind of pretty, but another big part of me thinks it sounds like a disease. I'd blame syphilis and the rubella virus.

Sybilla would be my default English spelling. My favourite version is the Catalan Sibil·la, and I love that. Sybilla is okay in English, but not one I'd use.

agreed.

Sybella.
I don't like it- makes me think of a disease. =/
