[Opinions] Sylvestra
I can't stop thinking about this majestically unwieldy feminization of Sylvester. Am I alone in appreciating its stuffy glamour? (Fun fact: There's a British actress named Sylvestra Le Touzel, which is one of the most sumptuous combinations of first and last name that I've ever encountered: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sylvestra_Le_Touzel)Here are some combos I like:Sylvestra Agnes
Sylvestra Alice
Sylvestra Amy
Sylvestra Blanche
Sylvestra Blythe
Sylvestra Charlotte
Sylvestra Chloe
Sylvestra Cleo / Clio
Sylvestra Edith
Sylvestra Eloise
Sylvestra Emeline / Emmeline
Sylvestra Enid
Sylvestra Eve
Sylvestra Hazel
Sylvestra Imogen
Sylvestra Ingrid
Sylvestra Io
Sylvestra Jane
Sylvestra Josephine
Sylvestra Judith
Sylvestra Juliet
Sylvestra Lilian
Sylvestra Lucy
Sylvestra Marguerite
Sylvestra Marianne
Sylvestra Mary
Sylvestra Maud
Sylvestra Miriam
Sylvestra Opal
Sylvestra Ottilie
Sylvestra Peony

It made my favorites list this year. I like the meaning and the sound (I usually like dra/tra in endings plus "es" in names seems to be growing on me, and I think the syl is nice at the beginning - makes it sleeker than the estra would seem otherwise). I like these out of your list:Sylvestra Blythe - I don't usually Blythe, but I think this works well
Sylvestra Chloe* - one of my favorite combos for it
Sylvestra Clio
Sylvestra Edith
Sylvestra Enid - nice meaning
Sylvestra Judith
Sylvestra Marianne
Sylvestra Mary
Sylvestra Maud
Sylvestra Miriam - I like Miriam with everything
Sylvestra Opal - I usually hate Opal, but maybe Sylvestra brings out its good qualities
Here are some others:Sylvestra Nancy
Sylvestra Hero
Sylvestra Marlowe
Sylvestra Hadar
Sylvestra Lorelei
Sylvestra Garnet
Sylvestra Merle
Sylvestra Edmee
Sylvestra Hope
Ruth Sylvestra*
Fern Sylvestra
Fidelia Sylvestra
Clementine Sylvestra
Marlene Sylvestra
Lorne Sylvestra
Phoebe Sylvestra
Autumn Sylvestra*
Noemi Sylvestra(My favorite 3 are starred.)

It’s pretty. I think I prefer Sylvia, but Sylvestra is very nice, too.

Hi Wordsmith !!!I always love your combos! You like my same style of names so often I totally agree with them.Unfortunately Silvestro and its forms are ending ti be used here in Italy.Silvestro in 2016 was used for only 11 boys (the lowest ever as San Silvestro is an important saint who is celebrated in New Years Eve.
Silvestra was used last time in 2012 while Sylvester in 2013. Sylvestra has never been used here.A unisex form (but actually used for boys only) was Silvestre used until 2015.But let see your combos!I love
Sylvestra BlancheSylvestra Chloe the perfect theme-combo! I agree with theme matchings. They are more elegant and evocative than similar names (with same lettera) or variant names.Sylvestra Edith
Sylvestra Maud
Sylvestra PeonyI would like Sylvestra Io too but 'io' means 'I, me' in Italian so it is used more than daily. I can't see it as a name despite it is mythological.I would add
Sylvestra Enya: if you have ever seen an official video of the New Age singer you would assume she is actually an elf or a forest spirit!
