Irish Family Names Research

Post by capt_buzzard »

:yh_shamrk :yh_shamrk What's your name? What was your mother called? And her mother? What was your father's mother's name? Most of us know at least a few of the surnames that make up the heritage of our own families.

And I know that many of you will not want to reveal such here, but for that - one can Pm me and I will do my best to help in any way I can.

Irish, Scots & English names.

There are many many Irish people now researching their own roots here in Ireland, and its just amazing what they have found, some have even discovered that their grandparents were English or even French. A new and very interesting world has opened up for many. :yh_shamrk

What makes it harder is that many of the names, especially gaelic ones when written down were spelled phonetically and the pronounciation altered to make them easier to say. ch for instance, most english speakers can't pronounce words like loch or lochaber properly. names like michael for instance, unless i stop and think about it i tend not to say it with the ch sounding like a k. The glottal stop is another regional aberration

Same with spanish and norman names, a lot were altered to make them easier to pronounce. It's when you start digging in to names you begin to appreciate what mongrel nations we all are. All the tribes mixing together. Makes extreme nationalism and ethnic cleansing even more silly than it is already.

That's easy, it's pronounced "ch", *not* "ch"!

Same in many places... the glo'al stop.

LOL,

Kennedy, this name can be of Irish or Scottish origin. The name is very common here in Northern Ireland & Southern Ireland, in counties Antrim in the North, and Dublin and Tipperary in the South.

The name in Ireland was originally O'Kennedy, Gaelic O'Cinneide(pronounced O'Kennada.). The O'Kennedys decend from Cennedig, a nephew of Brian Boru - King of Ireland. They were very important people at that time, and indeed some time later too as many became Lords and Ladies in County Clare and County Wexford ( John Fitzgerald Kennedy US President 1917-1963, descended from a Wexford family)

As we travel to Northern Ireland, We find that these Kennedy's came from Scotland, and were probably in remote times of Irish stock. MacKennedys, as the name is very common in Dunure in Ayrshire.

John Pitt Kennedy, 1796 - 1879, colonial engineer, was born at Carndonagh in County Donegal. The great road he built from Simla in India to Tibet.

Sir Robert Kennedy, 1880, was born at Culta, in County Down, He became governor of Gambia, Western Australia,Hong Kong and Queensland.

Davidson ( also Davison)

Davidson means, obviously enough 'Son of David', a personal name from the Hebrew Dawidh which meant 'beloved one'. Davison means son of Davie, a pet form of the name. The Clan Davidson or Clann Dhai (pronounced Dahe) descends from David Dhu.

Some of the Donegal branch of the family Mac Daibheid, anglicised to Davison and MacDaid, can also be found in Counties Tyrone and Derry in Northern Ireland.

I'm a decendant of the Men of Roe (?sp).

I have never seen CAMERON offered as an alternative spelling or surname. The only options I've seen are various spellings with the 'K' :-3

http://www.rampantscotland.com/clans/blclancameron.htm

http://www.macbraveheart.co.uk/cameron/

The name is thought to be derived the Gaelic "cam-shron" meaning "crooked nose" but the earliest records show the name as "Cambron" which may indicate that it originated in Camberone (from the Gaelic "cam brun" meaning "crooked hill" - now Cameron parish) in Fife. However, there is also a Cameron placename in the outskirts of Edinburgh and in Lennox. To add to the confusion, there is a Cambron in Flanders and the Cameron coat of arms differ only in colouring from those of the family of Oudenarde, nobles in Flanders.

Gaelic names spelled phonetically end up with all sorts of weird spellings.

A word of warning. Don't assume this is a comprehensive or accurate list. there is a lot of pretentious claptrap and myth surrounding the clans.

The Scots were a celtic tribe that invaded what was the land of the picts from Ireland. Irish gaelic and scots gaelic are very similar (not a native speaker so I don't know how similar) so don't be surprised at the name sounding Irish

Their name became synonymous with the country. In reality Scotland's people are a mix of pict, strathclyde Britain, anglo saxon, norman (E,G, Robert de Bruce), viking and nowadays poles, italians..

That Carnahan or Kerohan. Many Irish people changed the spellings of their name when they first went to the New World - USof A. What about Callaghan or Kollogan? I'll keep checking them out here.

Thompson ( also Mac Comb & Thomson)

This name is very common all over the 32 counties of Ireland, but even more so in Ulster in Counties Antrim & Down. Thomson is the prevalent form in Scotland and Thompson is the common spelling in England. However, the great majority in Southern Ireland spell it also this way. In Ulster, the name was altered from Thomson to its present English form.

However, the personal name was early borrowed into Scots Gaelic as Tomas pronounced Tomhust. The name was also anglicised as Mac Tavish, Mac Thomas, Thompson, Thomson and MacThomais MacCombas and so on.



A William Thompson, 1805-52, was a naturalist born in Belfast, son of a linen merchant.

Thanks. The Carnahans were a radical bunch, purported to be pirates in the north of Ireland. They eventually gained a little respectability, as soldiers against Mary Tudor's army. They were apparently strong Calvinists! They emigrated to Scotland and then back again. James Alexander Carnahan was reported to have 14 sons. three of whom came to the U.S. in the late 1700s.

However, the aforementioned is all tradition..I don't have a shred of documentation, except for the emigration part! And the succeeding generations.

Let's try O'Donoghue/Lynch. Kerry and Cork. Still lots of family in the region.

Apparently they were the last clan to be subjugated under the English.

My grandfather was one of the first "Bobby Peele" Bobbies of Ireland. After the revolution the local church posted a sign on the church doors telling the parishioners not to bother him. They didn't.

My grandmother was a nurse and the community appreciated her work. Before they were married her family owned a pub in Dublin. They sold it and went to live in the country on a farm.

Try Crosby and Tippins. Although Crosby is a British name from County York, I believe, a group of Crosbys went to Ireland, and another to Scotland.

John Crosby is said to be buried in some famous "we think a lot of you" place. LOL. Also, there seems to be some connection with Crosby Hall in London, now a cafe? Is that right?

I know nothing about the Tippins line.

Any information on any of these branches would be fun. :)

Kensloft,

Donohue (also O'Donohue and O'donoghue)

Donohue, in Irish Gaelic O' Donnchadha (pronounced Donn-nah-ha), like Donaghy and MacDonagh, stems from the personal name Donagh. It is most common in every town and city in Ireland. But most common in Counties Cork,Kerry Tipperary and Cavan.

O'Donohue Clan

mama Hello Again Mama.Aiken is Scottish origin. It is the Scottish form of the English name Atkin, which comes from Adkin, a pet form of Adam. There are many variant spellings. It was recorded and used interchangeably with Eakins from Scotland to Ulster in Northern Ireland over the centuries.

The earliest record of the name 'Orr' was in County Tyrone in 1655. Orrville in South Carolina is named after one such family of Alexander Ector Orr 1831-1914, he was a pioneer of subways in New York city. He was born in Strabane, in County Tyrone Northern Ireland.
