Sylar

Sylar is a name for boys that was coined by the television series Heroes. Created for the main antagonist Sylar, this moniker is based on the fictional watch brand Sylar in the show. Sylar may be a rendering of the Dutch name Schuyler, which means "scholar" and adds an academic tone. Alternatively, Sylar could be inspired by the German name Syler, from the occupational last name Seiler, meaning "rope." Sylar is a modern choice for Heroes lovers but can also be a nod to your child's ancestry or chosen for its industrious nature.
