The surname Carroll, or its variant O'Carroll, has its origins in Ireland and is of Gaelic descent. The Gaelic version of the name is Ó Cearbhaill, which translates to descendant of Cearbhall.

The O'Carrolls were originally a powerful Gaelic Irish clan who were descended from Cearbhall, the son of Muireadhach Muilleathan, who was the King of Munster in the 4th century. The O'Carrolls held significant influence and controlled vast territories in the kingdom of Ely O'Carroll, which encompassed parts of modern-day counties Offaly and Tipperary.

Throughout the centuries, the O'Carrolls faced numerous conflicts and power struggles, particularly with other Irish clans and Anglo-Norman invaders. They remained fiercely independent and managed to maintain their stronghold in Ely O'Carroll for several centuries. However, with the Tudor conquest of Ireland in the 16th century, the O'Carrolls gradually lost their lands and power.

As a result of the English colonization and the subsequent Anglicization of Irish surnames, many O'Carrolls dropped the O' prefix from their surname to assimilate into English society. Thus, the surname Carroll emerged.

Today, the surname Carroll is widespread among Irish diaspora communities, especially in countries such as the United States, Canada, and Australia, where many Irish immigrants settled. It is a proud reminder of Irish heritage and the history of the influential O'Carroll clan.
