 From the surname, Ó Taithligh it could mean "quiet and peaceable", whereas from the Irish word tuile, it likely means "flood". There's also the possibility it's connected to the Scottish place name, Tullos, which comes from the Gaelic tulach meaning "hill", or perhaps to the Irish name Tuathal, meaning "ruler of the people" and the name of various Irish kings and heroes.
 
From an entirely different root, it has been occasionally used as a modern, anglicized form of the Roman Tullius , most notably the name of the philosopher Marcus Tullius Cicero.
