McGarrigle Surname Meaning
From Where Does The Surname Originate? meaning and history
MACGARRIGLE: An Irish name occurring in the Glasgow Directory. From Irish Mag Fheargail 'son of Fearghal,' meaning 'super valour.'
Variants of MacGirl are MacGarrell, MacGorl and MacGurl: all these are anglicized forms of Mac Fhearghail (which Woulfe says also has become MacCarroll-normally a different name, viz Mac Cearbhaill). Mac Fhearghaill is written Meg Fergail in the Annals of Loch Cé-one of the name was among the notable men slain by the O'Doghertys in 1196. This would suggest that the sept is of the Cenél Conaill, not a branch of the O'Farrells of Annaly but this may be the modern MacGarrigle. The aspiration of the G gives the sound resulting in MacGarrell and the other forms given above. Unaspirated the same name becomes MacGarrigal, or MacGarrigle, hence the variants MacErrigle and even Cargill and Carkill. These latter are mainly associated with Co. Donegal: in 1659 MacGargill was listed in Petty's “census” as a principal Irish name in the barony of Tirhugh. MacGirl, however, belongs in modern times to Leitrim and Cavan. None of these names is numerous.
