Akilan
Meaning of Akilan
Akilan is a masculine given name of Tamil origin, deriving from akilam (“universe” or “world”) and suggesting a sense of completeness. It carries literary resonance thanks to the celebrated mid-20th-century Tamil novelist who wrote under this name, lending cultural depth to its appeal. In the United States, Akilan has maintained modest popularity since the late 2000s, typically ranking in the 900s with five to a dozen annual registrations—its modest numbers ensuring few will meet another namesake in class. Pronounced ah-kee-lahn (/əˈkiːlən/) in Tamil, the name offers families a distinctive choice grounded in meaningful heritage.
