The surname Day has a long history, particularly in Irish descent. It is derived from the Gaelic O'Dea, meaning 'descendant of Deagha', which was a personal name of ancient origin.
The Day surname originated in County Clare, Ireland, where the O'Dea family was prominent. They were a powerful sept in the ancient kingdom of Thomond and were known for their military prowess and leadership. The O'Deas were part of the Dál gCais, a powerful Gaelic clan that played a significant role in the history of Ireland.
During the Anglo-Norman invasion of Ireland in the 12th century, the O'Dea clan managed to maintain their position and influence in Clare, and the surname became widely established in the region. Many O'Deas also migrated to other parts of Ireland and around the world, particularly to the United States, Canada, and Australia.
The Day surname is now prevalent in many English-speaking countries, but it has roots in Ireland that go back centuries. The history of the Day surname is a complex and fascinating story that reflects the rich heritage of the Irish people.
