As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.
We were unable to locate the origins of the name “Meenal” in the Arabic language.
However, according to some websites, the name “Meenal” is of Indian and Hindu origin and a girl’s name which means Precious Gem.[1]
 
It is not advisable to keep the name “Meenal” as it has an Indian and Hindu origin. A name has an impact on the character and conduct of the child.
 
We advise you to choose the names of the prophets and Sahaba e Kiraam and pious persons in Islam. A similar name to “Meenal” is “Minhal” or “Manal”.
 
“Minhal” is an Arabic name, means: Generous, honorable, fountains, spring of salubrious water.[2] and “Manal” is an Arabic origin, means: Gift, Achievement.[3]
