Yes! The etymology for both words is the French word gargouille, meaning throat. Gargouiller in frrench means gargle as we know it in English, and a gargoyle has a spout where rain water exits it’s mouth when it’s raining (via its throat)
From memory if it doesn’t spout water it’s called a grotesque.
