What did Wales originally mean?

French medieval romances call Wales "Pays de Gales". When French words starting with G crossed the channel the G sometimes became a W. For example the French name Guillaume became William. Or the French word "guard" became English "ward" and "gardien" became "warden". In the same way "Gales" became "Wales". Why did the French call Wales "Pays de Gales"? It means "country of the Gauls".
