From Where Does The Surname Originate? meaning and history

Local. There is a Holl near Kirriemuir and another near Meigle, Perthshire, and there ere lands named Holl or Hoyle in Forfar Retours (2,268, 312, etc.). There is also a Holl or Hole in Ayrshire. Jacobus Hoyle, burgess of Anstruther, 1669 (Inquis. Tut., 940), and Agnes Hoill was married in Edinburgh, 1692 (Edtnb. Marr.).
A Yorkshire topographer thus speaks of the cunabula of this family: "Hoile House, so called from being situate in a hole or bottom, gave name to a family who resided there as late as the beginning of the last century (1600), if not later. It is reckoned a very ancient situation, but has nothing remarkable about it now." Watson's Halifax, 1775. A respectable family of the name still existing deduce their pedigree from Edw. Hoyle of Hoyle House in 1528; but there are other local sources which may in some instances have originated the name, as Hoile House, co. Dumfries, Hoyle, a hamlet in West Sussex, &c. The "Hoele of Flyntshire" mentioned by Leland was probably a gentleman of the numerous race of the Howells. There is, or was, in Kent a family of Hoile, but from Hasted it would appear that their name was originally Hild. Hole and Hoole frequently interchange with Hoyle, and are doubtless synonymous.
Ingulfus Hoiel, Bartholomew Hoel, Norm. 1180-98 (Magni Rotuli Scaccarii Normanniae); N. Hoel, Engl. c. 1272 (Rotuli Hundredorum).
The old family of Hoyle of Hoyle House date back about three centuries (W. and L.). Thomas Hoyle, merchant, was lord mayor of York in 1632 and 1644 (D.).
