Throughout the world, Égal (Egal 
, Owel 
, Egala 
) is quite a rare dominantly male, but seldom female given name. The forename Égal is habitual in Cuba, where it is a rare male name, the Dominican Republic, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Not in comparison with a country's population, it most frequently occurs in India, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and Indonesia. More prevalently, Égal is the last name as well as the forename.
