Emil
- (em-EEL) - Such a quaint, charming name that, incidentally, means "charming." Some may say this is too effeminate for a boy, but I think it's great.
- Pronounced AY-muhl. For those who love the name Emily but hate its popularity, why not name your son Emil? Simple and classic looking, but the AY sound of the "E" gives it a simple twist.
Emil is the English form of the Roman name Aemilius, which is derived from the Latin aemulus meaning "rival."
