stanielstanneln.

/ˈstanjəl/

/ˈstanəl/

Forms: α. Old English stánegella, stángella, -gilla, -gylla, Middle English stanyel, 1600s–1700s staniel, 1600s stanniell, 1800s dialect stanniel, 1600s–1800s Scottish stainyell; also corruptly1600s stallion. β. 1600s stannell, 1600s–1800s stannel. See also stanchel n.¹, stonegall n.

Etymology: Old English stánegella , stángella , lit. ‘stone-yeller’ < stán stone n. + *gella agent-noun < gellan to yell v. (in Old English poetry used of the cry of the hawk). The corrupt form stallion (quot. a1616 at α. ) may have had dialectal currency; compare the converse mispronunciation staniel for stallion, which is common in rustic speech. The spurious forms standgale, -gall, given in some recent dictionaries, are evolved from the etymologizing conjecture ‘stand-in-gale’ (Swainson, Prov. Names of Birds). The alleged German synonym steingall, commonly cited by etymologists as cognate, is of doubtful genuineness. The 19th cent. lexicographers seem to have obtained it, directly or indirectly, from the Vocabula of Peucer and Eber (1549). But although in this glossary the word is treated as German, its source appears to be William Turner's Avium Historia (Cologne 1544), where steingall is said to be the English word for tinnunculus. Turner's steingall probably represents *steingall; Gesner (1555) says that it is northern English. The English ornithologists of the 17th cent., following Gesner, give steingall as an English name of the bird; Willughby's stone-gall is an etymologizing alteration of this.

The kestrel, Tinnunculus alaudarius. Also applied contemptuously to a person, in allusion to the uselessness of the kestrel for the purposes of falconry. (Cf. kestrel n. 1b)In Old English a mistranslation of Latin pellicanus (pelecanus) pelican.
