Zilvia Origin and Meaning

The name Zilvia is a girl's name.

Zilvia is a feminine name that appears to be a creative spelling variation of 'Sylvia' or 'Silvia,' which derive from Latin 'silva' meaning 'forest' or 'woods.' The replacement of 'S' with 'Z' gives the classic name a modern, distinctive edge while maintaining its natural associations. The original Sylvia has roots in Roman mythology and has been used since ancient times. Zilvia remains quite uncommon in naming statistics, appealing to parents who appreciate the traditional name's elegant sound and natural meaning but desire something more unique. The 'Z' beginning also adds a touch of vibrancy and contemporary flair to this otherwise classical name.
