Detailed Slovak etymology analysis

Meno pochádza z latinského rodového mena Silvius, odvodeného od podstatného mena „silva“ s významom „les“ alebo „háj“. Vykladá sa teda ako „lesný“ či „pochádzajúci z lesa“. V rímskej mytologickej tradícii sa tak volal syn Aenea a Lavinie, legendárny kráľ Alby Longy.
