Gamul Origin and Meaning

The name Gamul is a boy's name.

Gamul is a masculine name with ancient origins, primarily connected to Old Norse and Germanic languages. It derives from the Old Norse word 'gamall' meaning 'old' or 'ancient one,' sometimes conveying the sense of 'wise through experience.' The name appears in medieval Scandinavian records and may have been used as both a given name and byname (descriptive surname). Gamul has historical connections to Viking culture and Norse settlements, particularly in northern England where Norse influence was strong. While exceedingly rare in modern usage, it offers a distinctive option for parents interested in names with authentic Norse heritage. Its short, strong sound gives it a commanding presence despite its simplicity.
