Cahill

Cahill (locally /ˈkɑːhɪl/, UK: /ˈkɑːhɪl/ or /ˈkeɪhɪl/) is a name of Irish origin. It is the anglicised version of the Gaelic "Ó Cathail" meaning "descendant of Cathal".

For other uses, see Cahill (disambiguation).

"Cathal" consists of two parts: "cath" means battle; the second could be "val" (rule), so that the name as a whole meant "battle ruler" or "strong in battle", or it could be "all" (great), so that the name as a whole meant "great warrior".
