If I were more popular, I'd try to start this one as a meme!

I went to behindthename.com, and looked up my name.

It told me:

Gender: Feminine

Usage: English, Scandinavian, German

Pronounced: SIL-vee-ə (English)

(It also told me I was supposed to spell it with an i, although "This has been the most common English spelling since the 19th century." )

I also clicked on the "Ratings and Impressions" link. I found out I am:
Refined (85%), Formal (85%), Wholesome (81%), Classic (79%), Upperclass (76%), Serious (74%), Mature (74%), Strange (74%), Natural (71%), Nerdy (67%), Complex (61%), Strong (54%)

Interestingly, if I change to the 'i' spelling, it changes to:
Refined (81%), Serious (79%), Classic (76%), Formal (72%), Wholesome (71%), Upperclass (70%), Mature (69%), Natural (67%), Strange (56%), Simple (54%), Strong (54%), Nerdy (51%)

The big changes are that with the 'y' spelling, I see a big rise in Strange, Nerdy, Formal and Wholesome. The only axis change is that I become Complex instead of Simple.

I think if I were to go meme-spreading with this, I'd probably simplify it to:

Replace 'yourname' in the following URL with your name: http://www.behindthename.com/rating/view.php?name=yourname

Note the three highest rated impressions about your name (leave off the masculine/feminine and good/bad axes).
