Ballyhalbert was originally known as ''Talbotyston'' as far back as 1333; however by 1605 it had been Gaelicised as ''Ballitalbot'', and as ''Ballihalbert'' by 1617.〔(Place Names NI - Ballyhalbert )〕 The modern Irish name is ''Baile Thalbóid''.〔(Placenames Database of Ireland )〕 The Talbot family settled in the area following the Norman invasion of Ireland in the 12th century. The Talbots came from Herefordshire in England, and also settled in County Antrim and County Dublin.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 work=Ballyhalbert website )〕
