Tyneil is English in Origin.

Tyneil is a modern English given name, most plausibly a blended formation pairing the clipped Ty - familiar from Tyler, Tyson, and Tyrone - with Neil/Neal, the Anglicized form of Gaelic Niall meaning “champion,” sometimes interpreted as “passionate” or “cloud.” As a compound, it fuses the contemporary snap of Ty with the heroic Gaelic sense of Neil, yielding a name that suggests energy and resolve.

Usage is rare and largely late-20th to early-21st century, appearing in North American and Caribbean contexts with unisex application (slightly more often masculine). Some bearers view it as adjacent to Tenille/Teneille, a surname-derived given name boosted by 1970s–80s pop culture, though the Neil-based reading is more transparent. Variant spellings include Tyneal, Tyneel, Tyniel, Tyneille, and Tyneill; related stylings are Ty-Neil and Ty’Neil. Nicknames Ty and Neil/Neal are common. The meaning is typically taken from the Neil element: “champion.”
