I found this site totally by accident
seems that i'm the only manx Quayle on here, i was born in the Isle of Man and brought up there at Rhenab, Maughold, but am now studying at Uni in England

This is all the info i have on the meaning and derivation of the name quayle, hope it helps

QUAYLE, contracted from Mac Phail, 'Paul's son.' PHAIL is anglicised from MAELFABHAILL.

'MAELFABHAILL son of Mulrcheartach, slain by the Norsemen.'*
This is one of the most widely distributed names in the Island.

MACQUAYLE, QUAYLE [1540], QUAYLLE, QUALL [1601], QUALE [1602], QUAILE [16041, QUAIL [1656].

Malew, Onchan (vc). Rushen, Arbory, Santon, German, Braddan, Ballaugh, Lezayre, Maughold (c), elsewhere (u).
