Using an IPA ASCII equivalent (courtesy of the Diction Domain),

/sylv&js saN/

is it, unless I misunderstood Lloyd's direction (I don't know the
pronunciation, I'm just transcribing his instructions!)
I assume the 'u:' above is an umulat.

Lloyd, is this name evocative of or equivalent to the English Sylvia? i.e.,
Sylvia's Song? (I regret I'm not familiar with the song.)

Thanks,
