Axil

Axil is a masculine name of English and Norse origin. If your family has a love for botany, an axil can refer to the angle between a leaf and its stem. For a more battle-inspired choice, Axil can also be a variant of Axel, which in turn comes from Asketillus. A blend of the Old Norse words óss and ketill, meaning “God’s kettle,” “God’s helmet,” or “God’s cauldron.” Whether baby prefers to study the beauty of nature or explore Norse mythological heroes, Axil can make for a great choice.
