Origin: Icelandic
Meaning: Kettle; Cauldron
Ketill is a masculine name of Icelandic and Old Norse origin. Meaning "kettle" or "cauldron," this name holds on to both spooky and practical illusions. However, to add to its practical nature, this name is also said to mean "helmet." If you combine those meanings, one might consider that small cauldrons were once more multi-purpose than initially realized. A name like Ketill holds on to Icelandic tradition and teaches a lesson of resourcefulness in just six letters.
