Yes your thinking is correct!  Although, I have known several 
American Sybills (yes here in the USA) and they ALL spelled their 
name Sybill or Cybil.  I had never seen the named spelled with an "i" 
first and the "y" second before reading PoA.  
Lynnette, who thinks Snape IS a good guy, even if he is NOT a nice
