== Name ==
It is generally believed that the town's name is from . However, in his book ''Church and Parish Records'' (1903), the Rev. J.H. Cole of the Church of Ireland said that ''tuathail'' is used in the sense of "left-handed", or "North". Cole says it is so called because, whereas most of the rocks in that part of the country run east-west, the rocks at Carrigtwohill run north-south.
The town's anglicised name first appeared in written documents in 1234 as ''Karrectochell''. Later spellings include ''Carrigtuoghill'', ''Carrigtoghill'', ''Carrigtowhill'' and ''Carrigtowill''.〔
