Apryl Origin and Meaning

The name Apryl is a girl's name.

Apryl is a creative alternative spelling of April, which derives from the Latin 'Aprilis,' the name of the fourth month of the year. This variant spelling emerged in the late 20th century during the trend toward unique name spellings. The name evokes the freshness of spring, new beginnings, and renewal. The 'y' substitution gives the classic name a distinctive appearance while maintaining its familiar pronunciation. Though less common than the traditional spelling, Apryl has maintained consistent if modest usage since the 1970s. The name carries the same associations as April—springtime, blossoming flowers, and gentle rain—while offering individuality through its spelling. Bearers of this name often appreciate its uniqueness while still connecting to the natural symbolism of the spring month. As with many alternative spellings, Apryl may require occasional correction but provides a slightly more distinctive identity than the standard form.
