Best Answer

England and Ireland by settlement from France as homeland are the English, French, and Irish origins of the name "Keville." The surname in question exists in the form "Keevil" (from Chievele, in the Old English for "hollow woodland clearing") in Wiltshire, southwest England, according to the Domesday Book of 1086 - 1087 and in France as the Old French keville (for "wooden peg," from the Latin diminutive clāvicula from clāvis ["key"]). The last name also may be found in Ireland, as the name of settlers especially in the western region at County Mayo.
