It's usually spelled Otile, and is a surname, as well as a unisex personal name. There are a few french communes called Auteuil (also in Quebec), from which surnames are derived, but Otile seems to be a variant of Otilia (the normal form in Portugal and Eastern Europe)/Odile (A saint and the black swan from Swan Lake), a feminine derivative of Odo or Otto, which is from a Germanic root meaning "(inherited) land>fortune>happiness".
