Gaell

Gaell is a gender-neutral name of Irish and Celtic origins, acting as a blend of the masculine Gael and feminine Gaelle. Coming from the Scottish Gaelic Gaidheal and Old Irish Goidhel, it can translate to “Scottish Highlander” or “Gaelic-speaking person.” This can be a meaningful choice if baby’s family tree has roots in Scotland, Ireland, or the Isle of Man. Thanks to its connections to the Celtic word gall, it can also translate to “foreigner” or “stranger,” encouraging your little one to embrace different cultures or take the path less traveled. Gaell may also have links to the Hebrew word gíl, meaning “joy,” “rejoice” or “happiness”—think of it as the second half of the Hebrew Abigail. Every moment with baby can be a joyful one, and the name Gaell will always remind them that they’re a cheerful addition to your family.
