Argyll

A Scottish place name and surname, originally called Earre Ghàidheal (or "coast of the Gaels"), owing to the fact it was one of the first places Irish settles established themselves in Scotland. Also spelled as Argyle when used as a surname, the name is pronounced with a sharp 'eye' sound and was given to three babies in Scotland in a recent year. To put that in context, as many babies were called Argyll as were called Barnaby, Oren, and Leland.

Pronounced ar-GYL.
