Etymology

Perhaps from Proto-Indo-European *gol- and cognate with Proto-Slavic *golьje, whence Ukrainian гілля (hilljá, branch), dialectal Russian голья (gol’já, branch), Slovene gólje (twigs without leaves). Relation to կող (koł) is also possible. It is uncertain whether Zazaki kōlī (wood, firewood) is related.
