Nilay is of Indian origin, derived from Sanskrit, and means "limitless" or "boundless." It's composed of two elements: "nila," which translates to "dark blue," and "ay," meaning "limit" or "end." This name was popularized by the ancient Indian poet Valmiki in his epic Ramayana. Nilay is often associated with wisdom, knowledge, and vastness, reflecting its profound meanings.
