Sylvia McNicoll: Hi, this is Sylvia McNicoll. My mom named me Sylvia because she was in love with S words, the sound of them. She wanted Sonya or Sunshine, but she ended up with Sylvia. McNicoll is my husband's name and I like it because Mick and Nick rhyme with itself and McNicoll rhymes with pickle and who doesn't love a good pickle. I also love that I have so many loops in my name, so it's great for autographs.
