Poile is an English surname of several possible origins. [1]
There are numerous claims as to the origins of the Poile surname, known as location and occupational origins.
Ethnic name from the Middle English Poille, Poyle, Apuelle, which are representations of Apulia, Italy, and denote someone from there; Pulleis denotes 'man of Apulia', or 'Pulley'. Thus Poile is considered in this instance a variant of Pulley. [1]
A locational surname from a place called Poyle, Surrey, a small town near to Heathrow airport. The place name is derived from the Middle English 'pol', meaning pool, pond, deep place in a river. [2] For the place in England, see Poyle, England.
