Gayola, of Latin origin, is an uncommon yet charming feminine given name that means 'to rejoice'. It's composed of two elements: 'gaudium', meaning joy, and the suffix '-ola', which denotes a small quantity or thing. This name was likely created as a shortened form of other names containing these elements, such as Gaudentia or Gaudiosa.
The name Gayola is a rare one, with only five babies born with this name in the United States in the year 1917. This figure represents all the births recorded for that specific year and is considered a historical statistic as it predates recent years by quite some time.
