The surname Collett has its origins in Ireland, where it has a rich history. The name is of both Gaelic and Anglo-Norman origin.
In Gaelic, the surname is derived from the Gaelic word "Cúileart", which means "narrow pass" or "hurdle". It is believed that the name originally referred to someone who lived near a narrow pass or hurdle in the landscape. Over time, the pronunciation and spelling of the name evolved to Collett.
The surname also has Anglo-Norman roots. After the Norman invasion of Ireland in the 12th century, many Anglo-Norman settlers arrived and intermarried with the native Irish population. It is likely that some individuals with the surname Collett were descendants of these Normans.
Throughout history, the Collett name has spread across various regions in Ireland. Many Colletts can be found in counties such as Mayo, Waterford, and Wexford. The name has also traveled beyond Ireland's shores, with descendants of Irish Colletts emigrating to countries like the United States, Canada, and Australia.
Today, the surname Collett is still prevalent among individuals of Irish descent, and it continues to be an important part of their heritage and identity.
