* As a German surname, from Diele (“floorboard”). * As an English surname, from the noun dill and also the adjective dull. * As a Scottish/Scottish Gaelic surname, reduced from McDill, itself a variant of McDowell.

From Middle English dile, from Old English dile (“dill, anise”); from Proto-Germanic *deliz, of uncertain, probably non-Indo-European origin, possibly a west European substrate. Cognate with Old Saxon dilli, Dutch dille, Swedish dill, German Dill.

Perhaps a backformation from dilly (“silly”).
