The surname Pearce is of English and Irish origin. In the case of Irish descent, the name is an anglicized form of the Gaelic surname Mac Piarais. Mac Piarais translates to "son of Piaras," with Piaras being the Irish form of the name Pierce.
The name Pearce can be traced back to the medieval period when it was common for individuals to take on a surname based on their father's given name. This practice was prevalent in Ireland as well, leading to the formation of the Mac Piarais surname. The prefix "Mac" signifies "son of," indicating that the bearers of this name were descendants of someone named Piaras.
The name Piaras itself is derived from the Latin name Petrus, meaning "rock" or "stone." This name was introduced to Ireland by the Anglo-Normans during the 12th century. Over time, it was adopted by the Gaelic Irish population and became anglicized as Pearce or Pierce.
The surname Pearce has spread beyond Ireland and can be found in various English-speaking countries. Many Irish individuals with the surname Pearce have emigrated to places like the United States, Canada, Australia, and the United Kingdom, contributing to the name's global distribution. Today, the surname Pearce continues to be a prominent name among individuals of Irish descent.
