Forms: 1700s gaulding, 1800s gaulin, 1800s gawling.

Origin: Probably a variant or alteration of another lexical item; perhaps partly modelled on a Spanish lexical item. Etymon: gawlin n.

Etymology: Probably an extended use of gawlin n., denoting a bird of uncertain identity (perhaps the brent goose), although some forms may be influenced by association with Spanish gallina hen (see gallinazo n.); compare Spanish gallinazo gallinazo n., which is also applied to one of the birds named gaulin in Jamaica.

Jamaica.
