Meaning & History
This given name is predominantly feminine in the Netherlands. It is not a typical Dutch first name and therefore its meaning is uncertain; it may possibly have been derived from the British surname Gallyon, which is Norman-French in origin (and is found in the spelling Gallion in modern France).A well-known bearer of this name is the Dutch television presenter Gallyon van Vessem (b. 1968).
