Abbygayl is Hebrew in Origin.

Abbygayl is a modern creative respelling of Abigail, ultimately from the Hebrew Avigayil, meaning "my father is joy" or "source of joy."

Abigail entered English use during the Reformation and was fashionable in 17th-century England; a later association with a lady's maid briefly lowered its status, but the name resurged strongly in the late 20th and early 21st centuries across the Anglosphere. Variant forms include Abigail, Avigail, Abigael, Abbigayle, Abbygail, Abigayle, and the short forms Abby, Abbie, Abi, Gail, and Gayle.
