Its exact etymological roots are somewhat obscure, as is common with many names passed down through oral traditions. It is believed to have local origins and may be derived from words in indigenous languages. The 'djal' component in some West African languages can relate to concepts of giving or sharing, suggesting a potential meaning of generosity or community spirit, though this is speculative without definitive linguistic evidence.
