Cirilah as a Baby Name. Meaning and Origin of Cirilah

What is the meaning of the name Cirilah ?

The baby name Cirilah is a Female name , 3 syllables long and is pronounced sih-REE-lah (IPA: /sɪˈriːlə/).

Cirilah is Greek in Origin.

Cirilah is a rare feminine elaboration of Cirila/Cirilla, ultimately derived from Greek Kyrillos, itself from kyrios, "lord, master." The name therefore carries the meaning "lordly," "of the Lord," or "belonging to the Lord." It passed into Latin as Cyrillus and then into European vernaculars, where it anchored a family of names centered on Cyril.

Usage traces to Christian tradition: St. Cyril of Alexandria and Sts. Cyril and Methodius propelled the name across Eastern and Western Europe. Feminine counterparts appeared intermittently - Spanish and Portuguese Cirila, Italian Cirilla, Slovene/Croatian Cirila, and Bulgarian Kirila - while English adopted Cyrilla/Cirilla in the 18th-19th centuries. Cirilah is a contemporary respelling, likely influenced by the -ah feminine ending familiar in English and Southeast Asian naming, and remains very uncommon. Related forms and variants include Cirila, Cirilla, Cyrilla, Kirila; masculine cognates are Cyril, Cirilo, Cirillo, Cyrille, Kiril/Kirill. Nicknames such as Ciri or Rilla also occur.
