Tejal meaning
Tejal (तेजल) is a Hindu girl's name of Sanskrit root origin (Gujarati and Marathi usage). By its first sound, ते, it is a Tula rashi name (Vishakha nakshatra) in the North Indian table.
From tejas, brightness, splendour, brilliance
Also used to mean: radiant
Tejal (તેજલ, तेजल) is a modern girls' name from western India, built on the Sanskrit word tejas. Monier-Williams defines tejas first as the sharp edge of a knife or the tip of a flame, and then as glow, splendour, brilliance, light and fire; it also came to mean spiritual and moral energy. Tejal adds the soft -al ending found in Gujarati names such as Hetal and Kinjal, and name lists give it as "bright" or "radiant". The same root gives the names Tejas, Tejaswi and Tejaswini.
