The surname Bodley, of Irish descent, has an interesting history that can be traced back to medieval times.

The name is derived from the Old English personal name "Bodeleah," which means "Boede's clearing" or "Boede's meadow." This suggests that the original bearers of the surname were inhabitants of a place named after a person named Boede.

Over time, the spelling of the surname evolved and variations such as Bodly, Bodleigh, and Bodle began to appear. However, the most common spelling, Bodley, emerged and has prevailed.

The Bodley surname is primarily associated with County Tipperary in Ireland. It is believed that the Bodley family settled in this region during the Anglo-Norman invasion of Ireland in the 12th century. They were likely of Norman origin and became established landowners and influential figures in the area.

The Bodley surname has also been associated with notable individuals throughout history. One of the most well-known bearers of the surname was Sir Thomas Bodley, an English diplomat and scholar who founded the Bodleian Library in Oxford, England, in the late 16th century. His efforts significantly contributed to the preservation and dissemination of knowledge.

Today, the Bodley surname continues to be found both in Ireland and in other parts of the world where descendants of Irish immigrants have settled. The name carries with it a rich history and heritage that many take pride in.
