Best Answer

The ancient Scottish-Dalriadan surname of "Dool" derives from the given name "Dougal". The Gaelic form literally means "son of Dougal". It is first found in the records of Galloway, where the Clan was bitterly opposed to Robert the Bruce. Their Clan Chief's treasured Brooch of the Lorn represents his narrow escape from the MacDougals.
