The surname Reddish has its origins in Ireland, where it is believed to have derived from the Gaelic name Ó Ródaigh. The prefix "Ó" signifies "descendant of," while "Ródaigh" is thought to have been a personal name meaning "red-haired" or "ruddy." This suggests that the original bearers of the surname had distinguishing red hair or complexion.
The Reddish family likely originated in County Donegal in the northern part of Ireland, as this is where the majority of individuals with the surname can still be found today. Over time, branches of the family may have migrated to other parts of Ireland and even to other countries, such as the United States, Canada, and Australia, where Reddish descendants can also be found.
The Reddish surname has undergone various spelling variations throughout history, including Reddagh, Reddy, and Roddy. This is common with many Irish surnames, as spelling was not standardized until relatively recently. These variations can make it challenging for genealogists and individuals researching their family history to trace their Reddish lineage accurately.
Today, individuals with the surname Reddish can be proud of their Irish heritage and the rich history associated with their name.
