The baby name Suchandranil is a Male name , 4 syllables long and is pronounced soo-CHUN-drah-neel; IPA: /suːˈtʃʌn.drəniːl/.

Suchandranil is Indian, Sanskrit in Origin.

Suchandranil is a Bengali–Sanskrit compound masculine name built from su “auspicious, excellent,” candra “moon,” and nīla “blue/sapphire-hued.” It can be read as “the auspicious blue moon” or “of auspicious moon-blue,” evoking cool brilliance, calm beauty, and rare distinction.

In use mainly among Bengali speakers since the late 19th–20th centuries, the name reflects the period’s Sanskritic, nature-centered coinages and reverence for Chandra, the moon-deity; nīla also alludes to the prized sapphire (indranīla) and the sacred epithet Nīlakantha. Documented chiefly in eastern India and Bangladesh, it remains uncommon elsewhere in South Asia. Variants and related forms include Suchandra, Chandranil/Chandranīl, Neel/Nil, and the spaced Suchandra Neel; alternate transliterations Suchandranīl and Suchandraneel appear. Short forms Neel and Chandu are typical. Feminine counterparts with similar sense include Suchandrima (“moonlight”) and Suchandrani (“moon-like lady”).
