Meaning what this word: Celtic. Gaul, Galata, Gaulisc
#17
Yes, that is entirely plausible.

And, unlikely as it may sound, a culture may come to refer to themselves by the very name given them by invading foreigners. Such, as I understand it, is the etymology of "Welsh," which was what at least some of the Anglo-Saxons called those Britons who remained unconquered and/or unassimilated in the area we now call Wales.
