ArchivesAglovale
Aglovale is a name from Arthurian legend. I've never come across a meaning so I don't expect anyone to know it, but if you do that would be great. I was mainly wondering if anyone knows the origin of the name. Most Arthurian names seem to be Welsh, British or Scottish, but there are other possibilites as well.

Aglovale (or Agloval) is also spelled AGLOUALE ((sometimes called
Aglavale, probably a clerical error).
The origin is Welsh:

Nowhere I found the meaning of this name. Perhaps there is a connection with the following Welsh elements (translated online, so I'm not sure about the accuracy):
Welsh agl = "trap"
Welsh o = "of"
Welsh vale = "valley, vale, dale, dell, bottom land"
So the meaning of the Welsh name Aglovale COULD be something like "trap of the valley".
