Carrall is in Origin.

Carrall is a rare surname-turned-given name with Irish and occasional English roots. Most commonly it reflects a variant of Carroll, the Anglicized form of Ó Cearbhaill/Ó Cearbhall, meaning “descendant of Cearbhall.” The personal name Cearbhall is linked to Old Irish cearbh, “cutting, hacking, slaughter,” plus a diminutive ending, yielding senses such as “fierce in battle” or “valiant warrior.” In some lines the spelling aligns with English/Norman Carrel or Carell, sometimes associated with Charles (from Germanic Karl, “man”), which has encouraged unisex given-name use.

As a family name, Carroll/Carrall is documented in medieval Ireland and spread to Britain and North America through migration; the Carrall spelling survives regionally, including in Canada. As a given name it followed the 19th–20th‑century fashion for surnames, with Carroll used for both sexes, though chiefly male; Carrall remains very uncommon. Related forms and variants include Carroll, Carrol, Carrell, Carrel, Carell, Cearbhall, O’Carroll, Carol, Carole, Caryl, and Charles.
