A Goodreads user asked Kim Harrison:

Hi Kim, I was wondering if you could clarify the truth about Al’s real name. In Sudden Backtrack (and the main books later on if I remember correctly), Gally is supposedly his real name. In Bespelled he says that was the nickname Ceri gave him. Now I’m reading The Turn and he just told Daniel to call him Gally, “Though that’s not my name.” Which is it? Oh, and I can’t wait for more Hollows books! <3

Kim Harrison Hi Amanda
It'a Algaliarept, of course! Gally is is "call" name, so to speak, until Rachel calls him Al, and he decides to be known by that instead.

More Hollows books are on the way. Keep an eye out for AMERICAN DEMON. :-)
