ArchivesGayle/Gale/Gail/Gael
A question on these names.
One, i found several sources that say Gail is old english for 'gay', or 'gaiety', which seems highly likely. So anyone else know anything about this?
As well the site states Gail can be a variation of Gale, but not vica versa, when it often is.
One more thing, Gael, can be a variation of Gayle (which is just a variation of Gale or Gail), Gail, or Gale, but can also be given as a name in reference to the Gaels, that is to say the Scottish/Gaelic backround.
Thanks
