Anil Meaning and Origin

The name Anil is a boy’s name meaning “air, wind” and is of Sanskrit origin. In Sanskrit, “Anil” is derived from the elements “a” (not) and “nila” (dark, blue). The name is often associated with the wind or the god of wind, making it symbolic of the breath of life. In Turkish, “Anıl” means “remembered” or “memorable,” stemming from the verb “anmak,” which translates to “to remember.” In Arabic, “Anil” means “one who is noble” or “nobleman.” In India and other South Asian countries, Anil has been a relatively common name for many years, especially among Hindu communities due to its Sanskrit origins.
