What can you tell me about the last name Ingle?

As far as I know it has come from an Anglo-Saxon/European background buit I can't find much about it.

Thanks!

Ingle can be an English name (see http://www.surnamedb.com/Surname/ingle) but in the US it appears to be an alteration of the German name Engel as shown at http://tinyurl.com/4ts7w6e. You'll find the origin of Engel at http://www.ancestry.com/facts/Engel-name-meaning.ashx
