The surname Coyle, or its variant McCoyle, has its origins in Ireland and is an anglicized form of the Gaelic Ó Cadhla or Mac Cadhla. The Ó Cadhla were a prominent sept, or branch, of the O'Neills, a powerful Irish clan who ruled over the province of Ulster. The name Ó Cadhla itself is derived from the Gaelic word cadhla, meaning graceful or beautiful.
The O'Neills and their various septs were significant figures in Irish history, particularly during the medieval period when they played a central role in the resistance to English rule. The Coyle or McCoyle surname was likely adopted by members of the Ó Cadhla sept as a way to differentiate themselves from other branches of the O'Neills.
Following the English conquest of Ireland, many Gaelic surnames were anglicized in an effort to assimilate into English culture. As a result, the surname Coyle or McCoyle became more widely used among Irish families, particularly those with connections to the O'Neills.
Today, the surname Coyle or McCoyle is still common in Ireland and among the Irish diaspora. It carries with it a rich history of Irish heritage and a connection to the ancient O'Neill clan.
