Name meaning

[edit]

"Gille" usually means 'gamekeeper' in West Scotland, or 'a Highland chief's attendant. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gillie

'Chlerig' is probably 'cleric'.

So it means 'Church gamekeer' or 'attendant to the church'. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.30.55.165 (talk) 12:33, 25 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
