  1. I loved the horror movie scream and Sydney was my favorite character

  2. I named her Sydney because while I was pregnant I watched a movie and the main characters name was Sydney, and I fell in love with the name.

    Sydney’s middle name is Rose. Which is one of my favorite flowers. And I liked how it sounded together.

    • That’s my first and middle name to! Except my grandmother came up with Sydney

  3. Growing up I always liked the name Sydney and I imagined having twins and naming them Sydney and savannah. When I became pregnant and we found out it was a girl the name popped up again and after lots of choices we decided it was the one!
