gamp

Gamp is an old-fashioned English word for an umbrella which derives from a Charles Dickens character called Mrs Gamp who used to carry an umbrella around (possibly in Martin Chuzzlewit).

Not in use today, but references can be found to it in at least 2 George Formby songs "you're everything to me" and "under that blasted oak tree".
