Gail is the name of a river in southern Austria, the largest right tributary of the Drava. Its drainage basin is 1,413.9 km2 .The name Gail developed from Old High German Gîla, in turn from the form *Gīla . It is likely that the name is of substrate origin, predating the Roman presence in the area. The name is believed to derive from the pre-Romance word *gai̯li̯a , meaning 'foaming , powerful'. The river is documented as Gila in a 1090 deed. The Slovene name Zilja is also commonly cited because the lower Gail Valley is a traditional settlement area of the Carinthian Slovenes and a language region of the distinct Gail Valley dialect.
