The surname Gamble is of Irish origin and is derived from the Gaelic name Mac Camhaoil, which means son of the bald one. The name is believed to have originated in the province of Ulster in Northern Ireland.
The Gamble family can be traced back to the ancient Gaelic tribes that inhabited Ireland. They were descendants of the great King Niall of the Nine Hostages, who ruled Ireland in the 4th century. The name was first recorded in the 12th century, and the Gamble clan was known for their strength and bravery in battle.
During the 17th century, many Irish families, including the Gambles, were forced to flee their homeland due to religious and political persecution by the English. They emigrated to other parts of the world, such as America, Australia, and Canada, where they sought refuge and a better life.
In the United States, the Gamble surname is particularly prevalent in the southern states, such as Mississippi, Alabama, and Georgia, where many Irish immigrants settled and established themselves in the 18th and 19th centuries.
Today, the Gamble surname is still proudly carried by many individuals of Irish descent, and it continues to be a symbol of their rich heritage and ancestry.
