I knew a girl named Ciel. Her name was Cecilia but she went by Ciel. She pronounced it seel .
Ciel for Cecilia is fun. Ciel only became horrible after I found out it was Kyle in disguise.
I would pronounce Ciel as the French word (see-el) Never would I have thought it was a creative spelling of Kyle!
That's what I guessed too. I saw it on an employee's name tag and said "Oh, is that see-el, like 'sky' in French?" but the guy said "no, it's Kyle". I was definitely surprised!
I have a Kiel. We used to jokingly call him Keel.
