Question Summary:
What is the meaning of the name Shakeel (شكيل)

Question Detail:

 
I know names have great virtue in Islam.  I am embarking in the path of spiritual knowledge but I am worried my name holds little virtue.  I wish I had a name of a sahabi or nabi or a tabiee or any of the salaf or akabir.  Subhanallah allah made it such my name is very unique.  Can you please tell me what my name means or any virtues/legacies of my name?
My name is Shakeel (شكيل)

Answer :

In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
 
As-salāmu ‘alaykum wa-rahmatullāhi wa-barakātuh.
 
 Masha-Allah, you have a beautiful name.
 
Shakeel is derived from the root word Shakl  (شكل)  which means form and shape.
 
Shakeel means a pleasant form or a person who constructs forms and shapes. This gives the impression of an organizer having good skills in arranging things.
 
 
And Allah Ta’āla Knows Best
