It's a surname, I was watching a soccer match the other day and one of the players was called Cahill and it bothered me greatly how wrongly the commentator was pronouncing it

You're correct.
My Mum used to go mad when people used to say Galla- ger, or gallag-her instead of Galla- her.

Gall Ach ur

...I’ve always pronounced it Galla-har because I’ve always done the silent g in names, like my dad did...I didn’t know it was any other way as a child...my mum adopted that way as well...
Gall Ach ur
but then dont get me started with Loch
...that bit of water ...is probably the easiest way than the gurgling type sound that it is...
