Koko Lefay - Koko just doesn't look or sound substantial enough to take a person through her whole life. I think it would be hard to be taken seriously in a lot of professions with this name. Courtney Cox named her daughter CoCo - - but she's in Hollywood.
Sylvan Lefay - I believe this is a French male name. I have friends that have dated hockey players and this one seems to be a popular name in French speaking Canada. Is there a female version you could use?
Lux Lefay - this looks too trendy to me - - kind of like the Crystal and Tiffany type names.
River Lefay - I think this would be mistaken for a boy - - or at least cause confusion. Is there a story behind the choice?
My first question also was if this was for a boy or a girl...the only one to me that really seems like a girl's name is Koko, but spelled like that that it really makes me think of a clown...I think Coco would be much better. I like Sylvie as a nn, though, if you go with Sylvan, but that to me has the immediate association with the much-advertised Sylvan Learning Centers. I know you didn't ask for suggestions on other names, but...you have what seems like a very French last name to me, and a name like Fleur or Tanaquil has the same offbeat sensibilities as your other choices with a nice French-sounding flow. I think personally that Fleur is a lovely name that not a lot of girls with "regular" last names could pull off, but that Fleur LeFay has quite a celebrity ring to it.
But, as always, JMHO!
