Cyrilla is Greek in Origin.
Cyrilla is the Latinized feminine form of Cyril, from Greek Kyrillos, derived from kyrios “lord, master.” The name therefore means “lordly” or “belonging to the Lord,” echoing early Christian usage of kyrios for Christ. While Cyrilla developed as a learned, ecclesiastical variant alongside feminine counterparts like Kyra and Cyra, it preserves the full “belonging to the Lord” sense of Kyrillos rather than the shorter, title-based Kyra.
Attested in medieval Latin records and revived in English-speaking circles during the 18th–19th centuries, Cyrilla remains rare today, appealing to those who favor antique elegance. International variants include Cirila (Spanish, Portuguese, Slovene), Cyrielle (French), Cyrille (French, occasionally feminine), Kyrilla (German/Greek transliteration), and Kirilla (Slavic). Related masculines are Cyril, Cyrillus, and Kirill. Nicknames and short forms include Ciri, Rilla, Cilla, and Cyra.
