Sylvanus by Cornelius Cort, 1565
Sylvan; adj: 1a : living or located in the woods or forest
b : of, relating to, or characteristic of the woods or forest
2a : made, shaped, or formed of woods or trees
b : abounding in woods, groves, or trees
In Latin, sylva means "wood" or "forest," and is derived from Sylvanus/Selvans, the name of the Italic/Etruscan god of the woods and fields—a god sometimes identified with the Greek god Pan or the Gaulish gods Sucellos and/or Cernunnos.
