I agree with pp that Juliana sounds like overkill. It's a pretty name, but I would prefer Julia or Julianne.
Of your two, I prefer Sylvie, but as a nn for Sylvia. FWIW, I LOVE Sylvia. I think it is a great name that is very underused.
Single Mother by Choice.
Life didn't work out the way I planned so I did it on my own.

My IVF Journey
Sylvie. I loathe Juliana. But that's probably b/c I have a relative named Juliana that I dislike. Plus, Sylvie is very "hip". Juliana sounds bland to me, and a bit dated

Re: Which girl name do you like better?
Sylvia. Juliana feels like it's becoming the new Isabel/Sophia. I know a lot of little Julianas running around.
ETA: Oops, I meant to type SylviE, not Sylvia. Sorry!
