Best Answer:
No, when the Apple Pencil 1st gen came out, it was intended for the Pro series until in 2018 when Apple announced iPad 6. iPad 6 is the only one in the Original iPad line as of right now that supports the Apple Pencil.

Answer
Apple, unfortunatly, does not offer engraving for the 1st gen pencil, however, they do on the 2nd gen, so if you have one of the new iPad Pro models, you are in luck, but otherwise, you can't get an engraving. Sorry.
