Cathal is a common given name in Ireland, spelled the same in both the Irish and English languages. The name is derived from two Celtic elements: the first, cath, means "battle"; the second element, fal, means "rule".[1] There is no feminine form of Cathal. The Gaelic name has several anglicised forms, such as Cathel,[2] Cahal, Cahill and Kathel.[3] It has also been anglicised as Charles,[3] although this name is of an entirely different origin as it is derived from a Germanic element, karl, meaning "free man".[4]
As is evident from the list below, the name was in medieval times most popular in Ireland's two western provinces, Munster and Connacht.
