The surname Bigot has a complex and diverse history, particularly within Irish descent. The name itself is of French origin, derived from the Old French word "bigot," meaning a "sanctimonious person." However, its presence in Ireland can be traced back to the Norman invasion of the 12th century.
Following the invasion, many Norman settlers arrived in Ireland, bringing with them their surnames and establishing themselves as an influential group within the country. The Bigot family was among these settlers, and they soon assimilated into Irish society, adopting Gaelic customs and traditions. Over time, the surname Bigot became anglicized, with variations such as Bygate, Bygott, and Bygot emerging.
In the subsequent centuries, the Bigot surname spread throughout Ireland, with the family branching out and establishing themselves in various regions. They became prominent landowners, holding significant positions in society. Many members of the Bigot family were involved in politics, serving as local representatives or holding positions within the clergy. Additionally, they played a role in the military, with some individuals rising to positions of leadership.
Overall, the history of the Bigot surname in Irish descent is intertwined with the Norman influence in Ireland and the subsequent assimilation into the local culture. Today, individuals with the surname Bigot can be found across Ireland and around the world, carrying with them a legacy rooted in both French and Irish heritage.
