Boyle / O'Boyle is a surname of Irish origin. It is anglised from the Gaelic Ó Baoighill/Ó Baoill.

The clan was founded by a Donegal chieftain, Aneisleis Ó Baoighill, the grandson of Baoghal.[1]

The derivation of the Gaelic/Irish is uncertain, and has been translated as "Peril" or "Danger",[1] "Son of the rash one[2]" or more positively "having profitable pledges[3]" (from the Irish word geall, meaning "pledge").

Their chiefs came to rule over Tír Ainmhireach  in the west of what is now County Donegal, which as a result became known as Críoch Bhaoigheallach; later renamed as the barony of Boylagh under colonial rule.
