The word gauge has a similar derivation to the word engage:
Germanic "wathjam" (from whence came the English words wed and wedge) became Vulgar Latin's noun "wadium," meaning pledge. This gave rise to a verb meaning pledge, wadiare. Onto this verb was added the prefix in-. The Germanic letter w becomes g in French (as in the French name for William: Guillaume). Inwadiare became, in Old French, engager, which English obtained as "engage." The word gauge is probably not related, but it is not known for certain what the ultimate source is.
