The surname Pell, of Irish descent, has an interesting history that dates back many centuries. The name is believed to have originated from the Gaelic name "Mac Peal," meaning "son of Peal." The Gaelic name Peal was a variation of the name Paul, which itself derived from the Latin name Paulus, meaning "small."
The Pell family can be traced back to County Mayo, in the western part of Ireland. It is thought that the surname was initially used as a patronymic, indicating that the person was the son of someone named Peal. Over time, the Mac Peal surname evolved to Pell as families anglicized their names during the English colonization of Ireland.
During the mass emigration from Ireland in the 19th century, many individuals with the Pell surname left their homeland in search of better opportunities in countries like the United States, Canada, and Australia. As a result, the surname spread to different parts of the world and became more widely recognized. Today, individuals with the Pell surname can be found in various countries, particularly in regions with a significant Irish diaspora.
The surname Pell, with its roots in County Mayo and its connection to the name Peal, carries a rich history that reflects the migration and cultural exchange between Ireland and other parts of the world.
