I prefer Cyrus. I think that Silas is a bit more trendy, whereas Cyrus is classic. Cyrus also seems more masculine to me than Silas. I think that the I sound with the central L in Silas feminizes it for me. (I feel the same about Riley and Kyle, which have both gained popularity as girl's names). I also love the nickname Cy (that spelling).
