Gaylord Entertainment was the former name of Ryman Hospitality Properties. In September 1994, CBS and Gaylord reached an affiliation deal where Gaylord's stations in Dallas and Seattle (both on channel 11, known as KTVT and KSTW) would become CBS affiliates. Both stations affiliated with CBS in the spring and summer of 1995, but in June 1997, KSTW lost its CBS affiliation back to KIRO (channel 7) as a result of a trade deal involving the station. Gaylord sold KTVT to CBS in 1999, two years after its cable networks were sold.
All of the comments saying, "OMG don't name your kid this because 'gay' means 'homosexual'" are really not necessary. This isn't a baby-naming site. It's not a site only for prospective parents who are trying to choose a name. It's a name site for anyone with an intellectual interest in first names, their origins, etymologies, historical usage, etc. As such, it's going to list all first names, whether they are usable in today's American society or not. Listing the name is not an endorsement of its use. No need to go on about how Gaylord is cruel and will invite teasing.
Gaylord was used in France from the start of the 80s, when it spiked in popularity, until about the mid-90s. Now the name's pretty much extinct here for pretty obvious reasons. You can still find guys in their late 20s/early 30s with the name here.
