McDowell (surname)
McDowell, also spelt MacDowell, is a Scottish surname. It is derived from the Goidelic languages, Gaelic ''Mac Dubhghaill'', meaning "son of ''Dubhghall''" (i.e. of the same origin as McDougall (other), McDougall) from the dubh meaning black and gall meaning foreigner indicating a Viking ancestor from Denmark. A Finn Gall would be a Viking from Norway. This naming scheme comes from Ireland and isn't based on features such as skin color or hair but based on how the Irish perceived the two Viking groups with Norwegians having come to Ireland first and being incorporated into Gaelic society more so than with the Danes coming afterwards.https://www.libraryireland.com/HistoryIreland/Dubh-Galls.php People McDowell *Abram Irvin McDowell (1793–1844), mayor of Columbus, Ohio *Alex McDowell (born 1955), British narrative designer *Alexander McDowell (1845–1913), congressman from Pennsylvania *Andrew McDowell (born 1971), Irish economist *Anne Elizabeth McDowell (1826–1901), Am ...
