It's a surname and it just is the anglicised form of Doibhilin. O'Devlin means "descendant of Doibhilin". I am not in favour of using surnames as first names. But whatever rocks your boat. If I were to use it though I'd use it on a girl to pay homage to Bernadette Devlin. See below to find out more about this extraordinary Irish woman.
