WHAT DOES DOYLE MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Doyle

Doyle is a surname of Irish origin. The name is an Anglicisation of the Irish Ó Dubhghaill, meaning "descendant of Dubhghall". The personal name Dubhghall contains the elements dubh "black" + gall "stranger". Similar Scottish and Irish surnames, derived from the same personal name are: MacDougall / McDougall and MacDowell / McDowell. During the Viking Age the term Dubhghoill was used to describe the Vikings—usually Danes—and the term Fionnghoill was used to describe Norwegians. It is commonly held that these terms were used to distinguish the darker-haired Danes from fair-haired Norwegians. Later, Fionnghall was used to describe Scottish Gaels from the Hebrides, and sometimes the Hiberno-Normans. The most common term for the Hiberno-Normans was Seanghoill to difference themselves from the Dubhghoill the "new foreigners" or "dark foreigners" who came to Ireland during Tudor conquest of Ireland. The name Doyle is not found in any of the old genealogies, like other prominent Irish families.

8 QUOTES WITH «DOYLE»

Famous quotes and sentences with the word Doyle.
1
Jeremy Brett
The provocation with Holmes is the fact that he's described by Doyle as a man without a heart - all brain... and that's very difficult to play, or even indicate.
2
Frederick Buechner
It is as impossible for man to demonstrate the existence of God as it would be for even Sherlock Holmes to demonstrate the existence of Arthur Conan Doyle.
3
Dan DeCarlo
I designed all the characters, anyway, and Frank Doyle was doing all the writing. I didn't have any more input on what direction they were going to go with Josie.
4
Mark Gatiss
The thing is, horror is a big part of 'Sherlock Holmes.' Doyle also wrote a lot of great horror stories, so there's a lot more horror in 'Holmes' that people possibly think of. There's a lot of curses and mysticism and real scares.
5
Niecy Nash
I am deeply saddened to hear that the man who murdered my brother, Michael Ensley, has been charged with murder again. I grieve for every family who has been victimized by this heinous individual. My prayers and love go out to the family of Demetra Doyle Heard during this trying time.
6
Glenn Quinn
There's a lot of Doyle in me. I don't know where I begin and Doyle ends or where Doyle begins and I end.
7
Rex Stout
Doyle stokes in a thousand shrewd touches with no effort at all. Wonderful.
8
Rafael Yglesias
Arthur Conan Doyle was entranced by the notion of a brilliant detective who can deduce everything a stranger has been up to from the merest clue, and yet can't have a trusting relationship with his closest friend.
