Clandeboye (from the Irish Clann Aodha Buidhe) is in modern times an area of Bangor, County Down, Northern Ireland, close to the nearby Kilcooley estate and is named after the Clandeboye family, a branch of the Clann Ó Neill of Tyrone who settled in what is now south Antrim and north Down, giving their name to the territory.
The spelling of the name has varied over the years, and had been written variously as Clandeboye, Claneboye, Clandyboy and Clanaboy
