This article needs a unique name to differentiate
it from other Cyrils, such as
Cyril of Alexandria.
Are there any other longer forms of his name? How
about Cyril of Thessalonica, Cyril of Salonika,
Saint Cyril, Cyril the Monk, or perhaps even
collapsing the two brothers into one article as
Cyril and Methodius?

As far as long forms go, I believe Saints Cyril and Methodius are both known as "Saints Cyril and Methodious, Apostles to the Slavs" in Eastern Orthodoxy. I'm sure it would be fine to tack that title on to them individually as well. Although they were both from Thessalonika, I don't think either was ever bishop there, and they aren't especially known for the work they did in Thessalonika but rather for what they did elsewhere, so it probably wouldn't be appropriate to call him "Cyril of Thessalonika"--
