Re: Chimene - the name.
I'm not sure about the Greek bit but my name was also taken from the film El Cid which was about Spanish history and the name Chimene (Shi-men) was used instead of Jimena / Ximena which was the name of the real person. I'm assuming they changed it to the French version to make it easier to say for the English speaking tongue as a J and X has a certain sound in Spanish.
