Oprindelse

Ordet girl stammer fra det gamle engelske ord gyrela, som betyder en ung person af kvindelig køn. Dette ord er en diminutiv form af det gamle engelske ord gierela, som betyder en ung kvinde. Ordet girl har rødder i germanske sprog og har udviklet sig gennem århundreder til at være det ord, vi bruger i dag for en ung kvindelig person.
