Mohitpal is Punjabi, Sanskrit in Origin.

Mohitpal blends two Sanskrit-derived elements: Mohit (from mohita, past participle of √muh/√moh “to enchant, enthrall”) and Pal (from pāla “protector, keeper”). As a compound it conveys “captivating protector” or “guardian who enchants,” combining emotional allure with steadiness. The name follows the productive North Indian pattern of -pal names, familiar in Punjabi and Hindi spheres.

Usage appears as a modern, relatively rare given name in North India and the diaspora, with particular resonance in Punjabi/Sikh naming where -pal is common. It is typically masculine. Variants and spellings include Mohitpaal and the spaced or hyphenated Mohit Pal/Mohit-Pal; related forms are Mohit and other -pal names such as Inderpal or Gurpal. Because Pal also functions as a Bengali surname, Mohit Pal may denote a first name plus family name, but as a fused given name Mohitpal emphasizes balanced charm and guardianship.
