Believe it or not the popular slang term Guy for (man) may apply, they were originally called Man-ropes intended for manual carriage to the job site, perhaps, and then Guy=wire evolved. Might also have something to do with Guidon, a type of pennant used by the Cavalry and roughly meaning Guide-Man from the French Guide-Homme.There may be some rough connection with Gaffs as in ship rigging, also.
