Re: Thoughts on Cyril
in reply to a message by InVain34
Not a name I've ever liked, but certainly I've never heard SIEreel or SEEril: it's strictly SIril, with the i in the first syllable sounding like the i in whistle. I can imagine Cyril the Squirrel in a picture-book, but for humans it's outlived its usefulness. I really hope no female Cyrils are to be found anywhere.
