The surname Hody has an interesting history, especially when it comes to its Irish descent. It is believed to have originated from the Gaelic name "Ó hUid" or "Ó hUiginn," which translates to "descendant of Uid" or "descendant of Uiginn." This Gaelic name was typically associated with the O'Connors of Connacht, who were a powerful and influential family during medieval times.

During the Anglo-Norman invasion of Ireland in the 12th century, many Gaelic names were anglicized for easier pronunciation and spelling. As a result, the name Ó hUid or Ó hUiginn gradually evolved into Hody. This anglicization process was common among many Irish surnames, as the Normans sought to assert their dominance over the Gaelic inhabitants of the island.

Over the centuries, the Hody surname spread throughout Ireland, with concentrations in different regions. Some Hody families settled in County Cork, while others made their homes in County Kerry and County Limerick. Each branch of the family had its own distinct history and genealogy, but all shared a common Irish heritage.

Today, the surname Hody is a relatively rare name in Ireland, but it still represents a connection to the rich history and culture of the Irish people.
