The surname McAwley or McCawley is of Irish origin and is commonly found among people of Irish descent. It is an anglicized form of the Gaelic name Mac Amhalghaidh, which means "son of Amhalghaidh".
The name Amhalghaidh itself is derived from the Old Irish name Amalgaid, which was composed of the elements "amal" meaning "work" or "effort" and "gaid" meaning "spear". Therefore, the name Mac Amhalghaidh can be interpreted as "son of the spear warrior" or "son of the hard worker".
The Mac Amhalghaidh clan was historically associated with County Roscommon in the province of Connacht, Ireland. They were believed to be an offshoot of the larger MacDermott clan and were prominent in the region.
During the era of English colonization in Ireland, many Irish surnames underwent anglicization in order to conform to English naming conventions. This resulted in the variations of McAwley or McCawley for Mac Amhalghaidh.
Today, individuals with the surname McAwley or McCawley can be found in various parts of the world, particularly in countries with significant Irish diaspora populations.
