Mullynagolman is a townland in the Parish of Tomregan, Barony of Loughtee Lower, County Cavan, Ireland.

The oldest surviving mention of the name is in the will of John Armstrong dated 1757 where it is spelled Mullinagollinan. The will of Alexander Faris dated 1766 spells it as Mullinagolinan. The 1790 Cavan Carvaghs list spells the name as Mullagh.[1] Ambrose Leet's 1814 Directory spells the name as Mullinagorman.[2].
