Sybil

In antiquity, the

" is adopted for a woman's name, the conventional spelling is
"Sybil."
Sybil
is also the name of a
1973 book
and
1976 movie
about
multiple personality disorder
.
"Sybil" also refers to a type of
card flourishing
in which a deck of cards is split into "packets" and manipulated.
