Applied in recent times and representing an abbreviation of any of several composite ind-A names (for example suhail al-wazn, suhail al-muhlif) that sci-A authors variously attributed to brighter stars in the region of Suhail. Lambda Vel was among these brighter stars. Some of the composite names may have been authentic ind-A names for far-southern stars, with their true identities unknown to the more northern sci-Arabs, while others of them were surely the creations of ind-A poets.
