Help[Opinions] Re: Sylvester
in reply to a message by mirfak
Definitely usable.
I've never known a Sylvester - but I would think a "unisex" correlation might evolve from short names. Honestly, I cannot think of a short name with sufficient notable popularity to record as a diminutive: would Silvie (Sylvie) be thought feminine?
I believe that I've only known one "Sylvia", through a workplace, professional endeavor, yet I recall that no-one had a short name for her.
It absolutely could be spelled 'Silvester': I like this better - as I more easily see the short name (pet name) Silver (Silvie Sylvie).
Is Silver a better short name for a guy than Sylvie?
