Etymology of JullyWhat does the name Jully mean? The saga of the name Jully begins among the Viking settlers who arrived in Scotland in the medieval era. The name Jully is derived from Giles. "In the Scottish dialect jelly means worthy, upright." 1 The surname Jully is derived from a corruption of this personal name. Giles is derived from the Old Scandinavian personal name Gilli, which came to the British Isles with the Vikings who settled in the north of England and in Scotland in the 9th century AD. They came to the British Isles under the leadership of Sigurd the Stout after they were dispossessed of their lands by the King of Norway. Early Origins of the Jully familyThe surname Jully was first found in Ayrshire where early record show Thomas Jelle held a tenement in 1518. Later, William Jellie is recorded in Cruikens, parish of Carnwath, 1673 and Andrew Jellie and his wife were residents in the parish of Borgue, 1684. 2 Further to the south in England, we found Thomas Jely listed in Essex in 1472; Robert Jely in the Subsidy Rolls for Suffolk in 1524 and John Jelleye and Richard Gellye in Surrey in 1583. 3 Early History of the Jully familyThis web page shows only a small excerpt of our Jully research.
