History & Origin
Navil is genuinely hard to place. It may be a coined name, a clipped form of a longer name, or a heritage name - some link it to the Arabic/Persian Nabil, 'noble', or read it as a spin on Naval. The record is too thin to be certain, so the honest answer is that its origin is uncertain.
It appears in American records only very briefly around the late nineteen-eighties into the mid-nineties, borne by just a small handful of girls. It is best described as a rare name of unclear source rather than one with an established meaning.
