Hemil meaning

Hemil (हेमिल) is a Hindu boy's name of Sanskrit root origin (Gujarati usage). By its first sound, हे, it is a Kark rashi name (Pushya nakshatra) in the North Indian table.

From hema, 'gold'

Hemil (हेमिल, Gujarati હેમિલ) is a modern Gujarati boys' name. It is usually explained from Sanskrit hema, "gold", which Monier-Williams records, and the related hem- names such as Hemal, Hemang and Hemant all share that root. Name lists give Hemil as "gold" or "golden". The -il ending is a modern Gujarati pattern found in names such as Jenil, Kenil and Fenil, so the name itself is not in any dictionary; we show the meaning of its root. One list links it to the Himalaya instead, which does not fit the spelling.
