The surname Nixon, of Irish descent, has an interesting history that traces back to ancient times. The name originated from the Gaelic surname Mac Naois, which means "son of Naois."
The Naois family was known to be descendants of Niall of the Nine Hostages, a legendary High King of Ireland who lived in the 4th and 5th centuries. Naois was one of the four sons of Usnech, a heroic figure in Irish mythology.
Over time, Mac Naois evolved into Mac Neicin, and eventually into the anglicized form Nixon. The surname Nixon is primarily found in Northern Ireland, particularly in counties Antrim and Down.
During the 16th and 17th centuries, Ireland experienced major political and social changes, including the Plantation of Ulster. This period saw the influx of English and Scottish settlers to the region, resulting in cultural and linguistic influences. Many Irish surnames, including Nixon, underwent anglicization during this period.
Today, the surname Nixon is still prevalent in Northern Ireland and has spread to various parts of the world due to Irish migration. Notable individuals with the surname Nixon include Richard Nixon, the 37th President of the United States, who had Irish heritage through his paternal line.
