What is the meaning of the name Aprill ?

The baby name Aprill is a Female name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced /ˈeɪprəl/ (AY-prəl).

Aprill is Latin in Origin.

Aprill is a modern English given name, a stylistic respelling of April, ultimately from Latin Aprilis, the name of the fourth month. The Latin likely derives from aperire, “to open,” evoking the opening of buds in spring; some also link it to Aphrodite, whose festivals occurred in this season. As a month-name, it carries bright, renewing connotations.

Used in English-speaking countries since the 19th century, April gained broad popularity in the later 20th century, and Aprill appears in records as a rarer alternative with the same pronunciation. Variants and cognates include April, Apryl, Aprile (from the Italian month name), Avril (French, also used in English), and Abril (Spanish and Portuguese). Occasional nicknames include Prill, Rilla, or Ari. The double‑l ending gives Aprill a distinctive, balanced look while preserving the straightforward, friendly sound that has made April and its variants enduring choices.
