Doyle


The name Doyle is of Irish origin and has Gaelic roots. It is derived from the Irish surname Ó Dubhghaill, which means "descendant of Dubhghall." The name Dubhghall consists of the elements "dubh," meaning "dark" or "black," and "gall," which translates to "stranger" or "foreigner." Therefore, Doyle can be interpreted as "dark stranger" or "foreigner with a dark complexion." In Irish history, the name was often associated with the Norse invaders who settled in Ireland. Today, Doyle is a strong and distinctive name that carries a sense of mystery and intrigue.
