Dúradh gur mhac Néill Noígiallach ba ea Cairbre mac Néill (Meán-Ghaeilge Coirpre mac Néill) (fl. c. 485–493). Is dócha gurbh é Cairbre an ceannaire a bhunaigh lonnaíochtaí Uí Néill an Deiscirt i lár na tíre. Is amhlaidh sna taifid i n-annála Éireann gur ath-luadh eachtraí Chairbre le Muircheartach mac Earca. Insítear sa naomhsheanchas le Tíreachán gur namhaid Naoimh Phádraig é Cairbre. Deirtear gur chuir Pádraig mallacht ar a shliocht, nára éirí siad ina nArd-Ríthe na hÉireann. Ní fhaightear Cairbre féin mar Ard-Rí ach sna liostaí is luaite.
