We haven't confirmed a dictionary meaning for the name itself. The meaning above is how families commonly use it.
Krunal (कृणाल, Gujarati કૃણાલ) is a modern boys' name used mainly in Gujarat and Maharashtra. Name lists usually give it as "compassionate" or "kind to others". We could not find the name, or a word it could come from directly, in the Sanskrit or Hindi dictionaries. The "compassionate" reading may echo kṛpā, "compassion", which begins names like Krupa and Kripal, but that link is a guess. One list splits it into kṛ, "to do", and nāla, "lotus", which is not a real compound. The cricketer Krunal Pandya, from Gujarat, is the best-known bearer.
