Meaning & History

Scottish (of Norman origin): habitational name from Haineville or Henneville in Manche, France, named from the Germanic personal name Hagano + Old French ville ‘settlement’.

English (Yorkshire): nickname for a scarred or maimed person, from Middle English, Old English hamel ‘mutilated’, ‘crooked’.

Irish (Ulster): according to MacLysaght, a shortened Anglicized form of Gaelic Ó hÁdhmaill ‘descendant of Ádhmall’, which he derives from ádhmall ‘active’.

FOREBEARS The first known bearer of the name in Scotland was a certain William, recorded variously as de Hameville and de He(y)neuile at the end of the 12th century. For long it was associated with Roughwood in Ayrshire. It has now more or less died out in Scotland, but is common in the north of Ireland, where its bearers can trace their ancestry to Hugh Hammill of Roughwood, who went to Ireland in the 15th century.
