Breton Names that Start With G

This cross-cultural name, found in Wales, Brittany, and Spain, is a surprise star in the U.S in recent years, largely thanks to actor Gael Garcia Bernal. Also written as Gaël, it's a popular choice across Spain, Mexico, Chile, Uruguay, and France, and the US. 
 
Given to 3885 boys in the US in a recent year, when it ranked in the Top 100, it's a separate name from Gale (word name) and Gail (diminutive of Abigail), however, it may sometimes be used as an alternative spelling for the latter. 
 
Despite the difference in spelling, the character Gale Hawthorne in the popular book and film series The Hunger Games may also have helped make this a stylish choice for American boys. It surged up the charts following the 2012 release of the first movie instalment, climbing from #410 to #146 in the ranks.
