The surname Bocking has an interesting history, particularly in the context of Irish descent. While the exact origin of the name is uncertain, it is believed to have Gaelic roots. The name Bocking is thought to be derived from the Gaelic word "bocán," which means "a little buck." This suggests that the Bocking name may have originally been a nickname for someone who resembled a buck or had some association with deer.
Over time, the Bocking name spread throughout Ireland, particularly in areas with Gaelic-speaking communities. The Irish Bocking families may have been part of the larger Clan MacNab, which has a rich history in Ireland. The MacNab clan originated in Scotland but migrated to Ireland in the 16th century. Some Bockings may have adopted this surname during this period, either through marriage or by association with the MacNab clan.
It is also worth noting that the spelling of the Bocking surname may have varied over time, as is common with many Irish surnames. Different branches of the family may have adopted different spellings, such as Bogan or Bocan. This can make tracing the family history a bit more challenging, but it also adds to the unique character of the surname.
Today, individuals with the Bocking surname can be found around the world, with many still having Irish roots. The name serves as a reminder of the rich Gaelic heritage and the complex history of the Irish people.
