Which do you think is the better way to spell this name?

There certainly is no "best" way to spell it; ultimately, it's up to how you, the author, wish to spell it. However, I do like the spelling Silun -- I think it looks like a nice name and, as another perk, it is spelled like it sounds (based on your given pronunciation) and so perhaps wouldn't cause much confusion for the readers. Although, I also like Silan and Silen. That's all just my opinion, though. In the end, be sure that you, the author, choose the spelling that you think fits best.

Best wishes!

There's no "best" way to spell anything in English, but I'd go for Sylen or Sylun. The Y gives more of a clue that it's supposed to be a long "I" sound, not a short one. The E or U seem closest to the murmur vowel that you seem to want for the second syllable. "Sylon" looks too much like "Cylon".

I'm with Steve on this one :)

Avoid Sylon, choose one with a Y as the first vowel, and my own preference would be Sylen.

Sylon

Silan

I like Silan or Sylon.

Silan

Sylan

Definitely Sylun, it's the clearest in regards to pronunciation.

Mine?
