A proper name, typically masculine, or historically referring to an early internet search engine that predated the World Wide Web. The search engine helped users locate files on FTP servers.
As a name, derived from Archibald, from Germanic roots meaning 'genuine' and 'bold.' The internet search engine (1990) was named after the word 'archive,' with the 'v' removed, making it one of the first automated web search tools.
