Family name origins & meanings

  • Jewish (eastern Ashkenazic) : metronymic from the Yiddish female personal name Keyle, of uncertain origin.
  • Probably in some cases of Scandinavian origin, an Americanized form of a patronymic from the Old Norse personal name Ketill meaning ‘kettle’, ‘helmet’ (see for example Ketelsen).
