Sylvia means "of the forest, or forest maiden"

Confusion with Silvia

Note the following:

There is another given name disambiguation page, named Silvia.
Neither of the two pages links to the other.
This page contains several people whose names are spelled Silvia rather than Sylvia.
There is also a page Sylwia.

All this is too confusing. I'd recommend either a merge of the articles (possibly with different sections for different spellings), or that the articles stay separated, are provided with links to each others, and are kept consistent with their separate names; which inter alia would imply moving the instances of Silvia to the article Silvia.
