Lexically in OIr. ''coil'', MW ''cul'' 'meagre, lean, narrow'; Pokorny {{bib|IEW}}: 610 compares Latv. ''kaîls'' 'naked' and reconstructs PIE *''koi̯''(''H'')-''lo''- 'lean', but the connection is questionable (see {{bib|Matasović 2009}}: 220, '''{{bib|LEIA}}: C-6'''). The word is not certainly attested as an onomastic element, but cf. maybe Latinised ''coelus'' at La Graufesenque ('''{{bib|OCK}}: X'''), '''{{bib|DAG}}: 208''' ''coilanus'' and {{bib|CIL}} I 2398 ''coili'' (Hispania Baetica); see {{bib|DLG}}: 121.
