The surname Blades has an interesting history, particularly for those of Irish descent. It is believed to have originated from the Gaelic name "Ó Flaithbheartaigh," which translates to "descendant of Flaithbheartaigh." This Gaelic name was common among the ruling families of Ireland during the medieval period.
Over time, the name underwent various anglicizations, with one of the most common being Blades. This anglicized version of the name emerged during the 17th and 18th centuries when many Irish families adopted English surnames.
The Blades family, like many other Irish families, faced numerous challenges during the Great Famine of the mid-19th century. This devastating event caused mass emigration from Ireland, with many Blades families seeking better opportunities in other countries, such as the United States, Canada, and Australia.
Today, individuals with the surname Blades can be found in various parts of the world, particularly in countries that experienced significant Irish immigration. The name has become less common in Ireland itself, where it has been gradually replaced by updated versions of the original Gaelic name.
Despite the changes and challenges faced by the Blades family throughout history, their surname serves as a reminder of their Irish heritage and the resilience of their ancestors.
