History & Origin

Kamil is an Arabic name meaning 'perfect; complete; whole,' long used for men across the Arabic-speaking world. Separately, it is the Polish and Czech form of the Roman Camillus. In both traditions Kamil is a boy's name, a lean we note clearly; families seeking the same root for a daughter use Kamila or the Lithuanian Kamile (said 'kah-MEEL').

For girls it appears very rarely in the U.S., against established boys' use abroad. Traditional, meaningful, and boy-leaning.
