Is it Irish to be Cuil?

The "About" page for the new search engine Cuil claims "Cuil is an
old Irish word for knowledge. For knowledge, ask Cuil."  Do you
experts agree, or is this another instance of the class "all English
words derive from Irish"?

P.S.  See my next message for a comment on how knowledgeable it is.
