From Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary (1913) [web1913]:

  Digamma \Di*gam"ma\, n. [Gr. ?; ? = ? twice + ? the letter ?. So
     called because it resembled two gammas placed one above the
     other.] (Gr. Gram.)
     A letter (?, ?) of the Greek alphabet, which early fell into
     disuse.
  
     Note: This form identifies it with the Latin F, though in
           sound it is said to have been nearer V. It was
           pronounced, probably, much like the English W.
