Bassil
Bassil is a surname of Ancient Greek origin. It is a derivative of the name Basil (royal, kingly), which comes from the name Vassilios. It is not to be confused with Bassel.
This surname, recorded in spellings including Basil, Bassile, Bazelle, Bazeley, Basilon and Vasile, derives from the word "basileios" meaning royal, and originally was given only to children of royal or noble birth.
In the 4th century A.D. the name was born by Basil of Caesarea, the bishop of Caesarea, and long regarded as one of the four fathers of the Eastern (Christian) Church.
