Suhil

Suhil is a masculine given name commonly used in South Asia, particularly among Indian, Pakistani, and Bangladeshi communities. It is also found among diaspora populations in the Middle East, Europe, and North America. The name is used primarily as a first name and occasionally appears as a family name in some families.

The exact etymology of Suhil is not fixed, as with many transliterated Arabic and Persian names. It is widely believed to be derived from forms of Arabic or Persian words associated with celestial bodies, brightness, or ease of life, though meanings can vary by language and tradition. The name is often considered to carry positive connotations in the cultures where it appears.

Suhil has multiple transliterations in English, reflecting different pronunciations and script conventions. Common variants include Sohail, Soheil, Suhel, Suhayl, and Sohayl. The choice of spelling often follows regional preferences or family heritage.

Geographically, Suhil is most prevalent in India and Pakistan, with smaller but persistent usage in Bangladesh and among South Asian diaspora communities abroad. It is used across religious communities and is part of a broader pattern of Arabic- and Persian-influenced given names in South Asia.
