In this context, the name may have been given to individuals who were perceived as outcasts or settlers in a new land, possibly due to their Christian faith. The term "Gonagle" was often used interchangeably with other derogatory terms for Irish or Scots in early American history, but today it is reclaimed by some as a badge of pride and heritage.
