Beautiful sight, visionary
In the dictionaries
We haven't confirmed a dictionary meaning for the name itself. The meaning above is how families commonly use it.
Darshil (दर्शिल) is a modern Indian name. It is clearly related to the Sanskrit root dṛś, "to see", and to words such as darśa, which Monier-Williams gives as looking at or viewing, but darśila itself does not appear in the classical dictionaries. Families who choose it usually take it to mean "beautiful sight" or "one with vision", and name lists also give "handsome" and "perceptive"; none of these can be traced to a dictionary entry, so they are best read as modern meanings that have grown up around the sound of the name. It is used in Gujarat, and a well-known bearer is the actor Darsheel Safary.
