Gail is my grandma's name, and she has never liked it. In fact, once as a young girl I was talking to her about names, and I brought up her real name. She actually told me, "Please, don't name your baby girl Gail! What about Abigail? That's much nicer, you can call her Abby." Of course, 10 years later Abigail absolutely shot up the charts, and I don't think my grandma foresaw that, but there were still one or two young Gails I came across in my life.

It's not a name I would ever use by itself (though I do like Abigail - however I couldn't use it due to the extreme popularity), but I don't think it's as bad as my grandma thinks it is.
