The townland name is an anglicisation of the Gaelic placename "Cnoc-a'-tSeagail" which means 'Hill of the Rye'. The oldest surviving mention of the name is in a grant dated 14 October 1612 where it is spelled 'Knockshogill'. Spellings in later documents are- 1613 Knocktegall; 1629 Knocktegall; 1639
