The surname Ibbetson has an interesting history, particularly when of Irish descent. The name is believed to originate from the Gaelic name "Mac Iomhair" or "Mac Íomhair," which means "son of Iomhar." This Gaelic name was Anglicized to Ibbetson over time.
The Gaelic name "Iomhar" itself is derived from the Old Norse name "Ívarr," which means "bow warrior." It is likely that the name was brought to Ireland by Viking settlers during their invasions in the 9th and 10th centuries.
As Viking influence waned, the descendants of Ívarr integrated into Irish society, adopting Gaelic forms of their names. Over time, the Mac Iomhair family became established, and their surname evolved into Ibbetson.
The Ibbetson surname has been found primarily in the northern regions of Ireland, particularly in County Donegal and County Derry. These areas experienced significant Viking settlement and subsequent Gaelicization, which likely contributed to the prevalence of the surname in these regions.
Today, individuals with the surname Ibbetson of Irish descent can trace their roots back to the ancient Viking settlers of Ireland, adding a unique layer to their family history.
