I like the Sybil spelling. I always think of a fortune-teller or psychic or the like when I hear this name. If I was writing a book and had to use the name Sybil I would make the character a Gypsy fortune-teller / swindler. She would be a colorful character. I guess that is what I think of it. I don't think it's tied to the book/movie. I think enough time has passed. I think, for the most part, only older people know or remember this book/movie. I do think it's a bit old fashion. I would call her Sibby/Sybby. Only when she's a young girl. Sybil is just too grown up for a baby or child. At least for me.
