The history of the surname Pollen or Paulin, specifically of Irish descent, can be traced back to the early medieval period.
The surname Pollen is derived from the Gaelic name Ó Póláin, meaning "descendant of Pólán." The name Pólán itself is a diminutive form of the name Pól, which is the Irish equivalent of the name Paul.
The name Paulin, on the other hand, is believed to have originated as a variant of the surname Pollen. It is likely that the spelling of the name changed over time due to regional dialects and the influence of foreign languages.
During the medieval period, surnames became more common in Ireland as a way to distinguish between individuals with the same given name. They were often derived from a person's occupation, place of origin, or a descriptive characteristic. In the case of the surname Pollen or Paulin, it is likely that it was originally used to identify a person or family who had a connection to someone named Pólán or Pól.
Over time, members of the Pollen or Paulin family may have migrated to different parts of Ireland or even to other countries, leading to variations in the spelling and pronunciation of the surname. Today, individuals with the surname Pollen or Paulin can be found in various parts of the world, particularly in regions with a historical connection to Ireland.
