Etymology[]
Cyril is a masculine given name derived from the Greek name Κύριλλος (Kyrillos), meaning "lordly" or "masterful", which in turn derives from Greek κυριος (Kyrios) "Lord". Famous people with this name include Saint Cyril the Philosopher, who, along with Saint Methodius of Thessaloniki, devised the Glagolitic and Cyrillic writing scripts in the 9th century, the latter of the two being named in his honor.
