Bazyle is a rare modern variant of Basil, from Greek Basileios, “royal, kingly” (from basileus, “king”). Via Latin Basilius and the fame of several early saints, especially fourth-century Basil the Great, the name spread from the Greek-speaking world through Eastern Christianity and into Western Europe. In English it has appeared since the Middle Ages, with peaks in the late 19th to early 20th century.

As a spelling, Bazyle likely blends Polish Bazyli/Bazyl or Slavic Vasyl/Vasily influences with the familiar English Basil. It remains very uncommon and is usually chosen for a distinctive, pan-European twist. Related forms include Basil (English), Basile (French), Basilio (Italian and Spanish), Basilio/Basílio (Portuguese), Vasile (Romanian), Vasileios (Greek), Vasily (Russian), Vasyl (Ukrainian), and Bazyli/Bazyl (Polish). Feminine counterparts are Basilia, Vasilisa, and Vasileia; short forms may include Baz or Vas.
