The Gemal name

A lot of people ask me about my surname Gemal. Is it foreign or mean something special? Well... it's not foreign. It's an old Danish name and has been for a long time. We traced it back to around 1650. In Danish the name gemal means spouse/partner/wife/husband.

This doesn't mean that a lot of people are named Gemal in Denmark. I think there are only around 5-10 people in Denmark. In the US and Brazil there quite a lot of people with the name.

In Arabic the name gemal means beauty. If it applies to me, it's up to you to decide! It also means dromedary camel and camels (plural of camel). That does not apply to me!
