I want to change the default topic/ folder to people/ for a new project I am working on, firstly I tried just renaming topic.php in the root to people.php which works when pretty urls is set to false, but using mutliviews or even modifying the rewrite-rules manually it still appears as topic/ any ideas?

Can you post your modified rewrite rules, the ones that did not work? You should be able to make any link with topic.php appear in the URL as people.
