I'm not able to read the book extract but - to make short - does this mean (do you mean) that "Gulle" is one form of the English "Gull" ???

Hi Franck!

I think it would be more like "Mutt and Jeff" or "Max and Mortiz", "Frick and Frack" - something like that - kind of a moniker meant to describe someone who might be considered a "country hick" sort of person or "good ol boy."
