In summary

From Old Galician-Portuguese gavian, of uncertain origin. Possible etymologies include:
* From Latin gāvia (“kind of bird; seagull”), with the suffix -ão, or possibly through a Vulgar Latin *gavianus (compare Italian gabbiano); compare gaivota from the same etymon;
* From Gothic *𐌲𐌰𐌱𐌹𐌻𐌰 (*gabila, “sparrow hawk”), which would be related to Proto-West Germanic *gabulu.
Cognate with Galician gabián, Mirandese gabilan and Spanish gavilán.
