Etymology

Borrowed from Apabhramsa कमल (kamala), from Sanskrit कमल (kamala). For the consonants underlying the conservative Apabhramsa spelling compare later Sindhi ڪَنَولُकंवलु, Punjabi ਕੰਵਲکَن٘وَل (kãval), Old Marathi 𑘎𑘪𑘯 (kavaḷa), Old Hindi कवल (kavala), Hindustani کَن٘وَل (kãval) / कँवल (kãval). Or more directly from Sanskrit काम्पिल्ल (kāmpilla), काम्पिल्य (kāmpilya, Mallotus philippensis). Ultimately a Dravidian borrowing.
