The surname Popham, of Irish descent, has an interesting history. It is believed to be of Anglo-Norman origin, derived from the Old French word "paon" meaning "peacock." The surname first appeared in England in the 13th century, and it is likely that some Pophams migrated to Ireland during the Norman invasion of the country in the 12th century.
In Ireland, the Popham surname became more prominent during the Tudor and Stuart periods. Several Popham families settled in various parts of the country, including counties Cork, Kerry, and Limerick. They became part of the Anglo-Irish gentry and played active roles in the local society. Some Pophams held important positions as landowners and held titles such as baronets.
Over time, the Popham surname became anglicized in Ireland, with variations such as Popham, Popplestone, and Peppard. It is worth noting that there might be variations and spelling changes due to differences in pronunciation and dialects.
Today, individuals with the Popham surname can be found in Ireland, as well as in other parts of the world where Irish immigration took place. The history of the Popham surname reflects the complex interweaving of English and Irish history, and it is a testament to the diverse origins of Irish surnames.
