Etymology
From Old Norse ígull (“sea urchin”), from Proto-Germanic *igilaz (“hedgehog”), cognate with Swedish igle (“leech”), German Igel (“hedgehog”), Dutch egel (“hedgehog”). The sense is influenced by Middle Low German egel, ile (“leech”), which derives a related noun, *egulaz, which is also the source of German Egel, Blutegel (“leech”), Dutch echel (“leech”).
