Re: Cyrus, Estella and Rimay
I find Cyrus similar to Cecil, Cyril and Cedric: nothing actually wrong with them, but they are all out of fashion. Estella is ornate and too closely associated with the unpleasant character in Great Expectations. Estelle is better, and Stella is excellent. Rimay ... riMAY? RIEmay? Something else? It might be real enough, but it doesn't convince me.

I agree that Cyrus seems similar to the names you’ve mentioned above. Rimay was being said RI-may and ri-MAY.
