Looking deeper into that, it is also possible that it is a reference to him being a bit of a liar...not maliciously, of course, but he does have a tendency to not tell the truth, or at least obscure it (such as when he "reads" Jester's fortune, or gives a phony backstory about his swords).

"Foolish" could also be "to fool" others (he is deceptive), and "gull" could relate to others being "gull-ible".

Mollymauk may very well be a pseudonym that passively implies he isn't being completely honest with everyone.
