The surname Dooley or O'Dooley is of Irish origin and is derived from the Gaelic O'Dubhlaoich, which means descendant of Dubhlaoch. The name comes from the personal name Dubhlaoch, which means black hero. The O'Dooley clan is believed to have originated in County Offaly in the midlands of Ireland.
The O'Dooley clan was a prominent Gaelic family in Ireland during the medieval period. They were part of the ruling class in the Kingdom of Leinster and were known for their fierce and independent nature. The O'Dooleys were closely associated with the O'Connors and the O'Carrolls, two other powerful Gaelic families in the region.
During the Anglo-Norman invasion of Ireland in the 12th century, the O'Dooleys fought fiercely to defend their land and maintain their independence. However, like many other Gaelic clans, they were eventually displaced and lost much of their power and influence.
Today, the surname Dooley or O'Dooley is still found in Ireland and among the Irish diaspora around the world. It is a reminder of the rich and complex history of the Irish people and their enduring sense of identity and pride.
