Voyle is both a given name and a surname. The origin of the name is from the Welsh language.It was originally moel , meaning bald , but became mutated (a change that happens in the Welsh language under certain grammatical rules, in this instance the soft mutation, from moel to foel.) It can refer to a person or a land feature such as the poorly vegetated top of a round hill. The name is often mis-spelt on census returns and the like, as it became anglicised. As the Welsh letter f is sounded as v then the name became spelled as the following variants;
Voil, Voel, Voyl, Voyle and even Voyles.
The name tended to be concentrated in Pembrokeshire and other areas of South Wales until recent times.
