The surname Owen has its origins in Ireland and can be traced back to ancient Gaelic times. The name is derived from the Gaelic personal name "Eoghan," which means "born of the yew tree." The yew tree was considered sacred in Celtic mythology and was associated with longevity and wisdom.

The name Owen was first recorded in Ireland in the 11th century, and it quickly spread throughout the country. The family who originally bore the name were of noble origin and held significant territories in various parts of Ireland.

During the Norman invasion of Ireland in the 12th century, many Gaelic names, including Owen, underwent anglicization to adapt to the English language. This led to variations of the name, such as O'Hughein, O'Hone, and Hone.

The Owen surname continued to flourish in Ireland over the centuries, with many prominent figures carrying the name. However, due to various factors like emigration and political and social changes, the number of people bearing the name gradually declined in Ireland.

Today, the surname Owen is still found among those of Irish descent around the world, particularly in countries with significant Irish diaspora communities, such as the United States, Canada, and Australia.
