I found this on http://www.irishclans.com/articles/irishbabynames.html for the name Myles.
"An alternative spelling of Miles. Bryan O'Nolan (1911-66) used the pen-name Myles na Gopaleen - a name originally created by Dion Boucicault (1822-90) - for a number of his works and for his Irish Times column."
