Connally Origin and Meaning

The name Connally is a girl's name.

Connally is a rare feminine name with origins as an Irish surname. It derives from the Gaelic 'Ó Conghalaigh' meaning 'descendant of Conghalach,' which comes from 'conghal,' meaning 'valiant' or 'brave.' The name crossed over to first-name usage as part of the trend of adopting surnames as given names. Connally gained some recognition in American political history through John Connally, a former Texas governor. As a feminine first name, it remains uncommon, appealing to parents seeking a distinctive name with Celtic roots. The name has a sophisticated sound and carries connotations of strength and dignity, while its '-ally' ending gives it a naturally feminine touch despite its surname origins.
