by courtaw90I loved this name since I was in college. But my husband's last name is Dennis. Does that sound weird? Silas Dennis?
by skate729Our son is Sylas Caine
by cbroad@ JAMIERAEGEM - Silas Stone will be our baby's name! Silas Jay Stone, we are pretty sure!
by SilasnAllieMy husband and I named our baby boy Sylas Manuel! We love it! it's very unique and we get tons of compliements on his name. My husband wanted to spell it with a Y. Manuel is after both of our fathers and my husband's middle name.
by Diane2600I had a weird dream last night that I had a girl and we named her Silas....really weird...
by ChristyMLI love this name. Classic and strong but not too popular yet. I'm hoping it stays that way so I can still use it.
by superbeffieSilas Lee is our boys name.
by Laur156I want to name my baby sylas jame if its a boy but my boyfriend wants sylas lloyd
by EmyleeDowns44This will be my baby boy's name. I wanted his name to be Silas Stone. However, he is due the day before ST Patrick's Day, and my husband's middle name is Patrick, so if he lands on St Patrick's Day I think we will definately have to go with Silas Patrick. :) My hubby and I both looooove it!!!
by JAMIERAEGEMI like the name but we are going to spell it Sylas
by Jenni GerberMy husband didn't like the name at first, but now he is warming up to it.
by llongoria072285LOVE IT!
by Ashtastic99this will be our baby boy's name.. if he/she is a boy... I have loved it since our last pregnancy. Sylias James
by msdanielelol, I'm in the "I love it but Hubby hates it" club too. I think he may be a little more persuaded when I tell him it means Man of the Forest. We're an outdoorsy family and love to fish, hunt, and camp, so this name would be perfect for our son.
by JessicaT11I love this name! My husband and I have decided on this name if we have a boy!
by LVrduzcoI'm trying to sell my husband on this name. When I first read it, I thought it was pronounced "See-Lus" - and didn't like it. I love it pronounced "Sy-Lus" The nickname "Sy" is just plain cool. I hope I can convince the husband!!
by hailcamplove it! but I like it better spelt: Sylis
by katheriner89Love it! Husband hates it =(
by clovonneptWed155273We are definitely using this name if we have a boy.
