My great grandmother was named Faye. Personally, I think the name is a little outdated.
Flora is very pretty! I like Sylvie as well.

I like both spellings, but I lean towards Faye since this one looks more complete. The name itself is adorable and suits any age.

---

I love Flora. I'm surprised it's not used among younger generations, despite being the name of a margarine brand where I'm from (Spain). It's cute and not unheard of.

---

I like Sylvie, but I'm liking Sylvia better. It's maturer and has a greener imagery.

Fay is ok, I prefer this spelling.

---

I used to like Flora, I find it a bit meh these days. I like sylvie, potentially prefer Sylvia.

Faye or Fay - I prefer Fay, since the e is unnecessary to me, but I dislike both as a full name. I think they should be a nickname or a middle name.
Flora - I loveeee Flora!! I'm from the US so I've never heard of the butter.
I dislike Sylvie. I mildly like Silvia and prefer the male counterpart Silvio.

I like Fay; something about Faye bothers me, it feels weirdly sloppy. I'm reminded of someone who spits while speaking. Fay is refreshing again, I'd love to see it on a kid. It's one of the few short names that doesn't bore me, maybe because of the retro punch it packs.

---

Flora is very nice, and I'm not British so the butter association is fine (also I would name a kid after butter, I love butter).

---

Sylvie is really cute. I knew a Sylvie growing up so I always preferred Sylvia for being "fancier", but Sylvie is sprightly and young without being babyish, a very nice name.

I adore Flora and Sylvie, they were top contenders if I had managed to get pregnant.

I prefer Faye to Fay, because it feels more complete. I wouldn’t use either but don’t mind them on others.

I prefer Fay; the -e in Faye seems unnecessary. But I only 'like' Fay as a mn, where it's out of sight.
Flora is margarine where I live. That doesn't bother me, but I do prefer Florence (family name) and Laura.
Sylvie is a nickname for people named Sylvia. I quite like Sylvia.

I like Fay/Faye! I do prefer Fay however

---

Flora is nice, not something I’d name my child but it’s cute enough, and I’ve never heard of “Flora Butter” (I’m British)

---

Sylvie is a cute name but I prefer Sylvia.

I think Faye and Fay are cute, I prefer Fay. Fae would be my overall favourite though I realise it would probably be misspelled a lot in practice.
Flora is a name I’ve warmed up to a lot the past through months. I think it’s very pretty, complete without being to frilly, and not too popular. The butter doesn’t bother me.
Finally, Sylvie is adorable! I would prefer it as a nickname for the classic, timeless and beautiful Sylvia.

I much prefer the spelling Faye, because I think it looks prettier; I love this name and find it sweet-sounding.

---

I love the name Flora very much, because it's so classy and reminds me of flowers. Many floral names are tied to specific flowers; you wouldn't have problems, if you didn't like the flower tied to your name, with Flora (like a girl named Rose who doesn't like roses). The only qualm is the similarity to the word "floor," in English...but that would never alter my love for the name!

---

Sylvie is a beautiful name, and I quite like it, even though I prefer the name Sylvia.

Faye is okay, especially for a middle name, but that spelling only. Fay just looks incomplete. I prefer Faith.
Flora is okay. It's old-fashioned but it's also somehow a bit splashy and glamorous. If Florence is a quiet, gardening-and-reading grandma, Flora's the ex-chorus girl grandma who should have been one of the Golden Girls.
Sylvie is just kind of weak and flat. Sylvia is much nicer.

Faye / Fay is a late middle aged/elderly woman’s name to me.
Flora reminds me of margarine and fauna. It’s too generic, I prefer a specific plant or flower name.
Sylvie is my favourite from the list, whimsical and elegant in the way the others are trying to be.

Faye / Fay I do not like. But Chinese Fei is nice!

Flora is nice! But I am not British.

---

Sylvie is cool!

I love Fay/ Faye! I think Faye has wider usage in the UK so I would expect that spelling.

---

The brand of butter does bother me, but it is a nice name. Perhaps as a middle?

---

I prefer Sylvia to Sylvie.
