Question: Is it necessary to make an intention at night for a Nafl fast? 

Answer: It is permissible to make the intention for a Nafl fast until an hour before mid-day. If, for example, until 10am a person did not have an intention of fasting and had not consumed any food or drink until then and thereafter he decides to fast, the fast will be valid.
