We haven't confirmed a dictionary meaning for the name itself. The meaning above is how families commonly use it.

Kenil (केनिल, Gujarati કેનિલ) is a modern Gujarati boys' name. Name lists most often describe it as a name of Shiva, and others give "leader" or "lotus". We could not find Kenil among the names of Shiva or anywhere else in the Sanskrit and Hindi dictionaries, so none of these meanings can be confirmed. It follows the recent Gujarati pattern of short names ending in -il, such as Jenil and Fenil, and is best treated as a modern coinage chosen for its sound.
