Segal name in passenger lists

I've reached a dead end searching known information in passenger lists. Part of the issue is that the surname Segal can be mistranscribed as "Segal" (the "S" looks like an incomplete "L"). This is what I've tried thus far:

Segal (any spelling/Soundex)
Segal* (wild card at the end)
*egal (wild card at the beginning)

Has anyone got a variation I may not have tried? Thanks in advance.

FYI, this is the Segal family from Gorodische, near Kiev, coming to the US between 1890-92 but definitely in the US by Feb. 1892, when another baby was born.

Best wishes,
Em
