Never asked this question ^^, but then why are $ "dollars?" why Yen, Rupees or Kroners? Whilst the currecencies may be called something because of something historical ("£" Pounds probably something to do we weight) The reason for the name of a currency may not be entirely obvious or it may even be made up. Gil is just called Gil I guess. Perhaps there was a brilliant king Gilmore who united the crystals and yada yada... or perhaps it's a reference to Gilgamesh? Anyway, it's 95% likely that the developers just went with gil because it sounded good.
