The surname Round, of Irish descent, has an interesting history that dates back centuries.
The origins of the Round surname can be traced to the Gaelic language, where it was known as Ó Rodáin, meaning "descendant of Rodán." The name Rodán itself is believed to come from the Gaelic word "rod," meaning "wheel" or "circle." This suggests that the surname Round may have originally been a nickname given to someone who was round in shape or had a round face.
The Round family is thought to have originated in County Westmeath in the midlands of Ireland. They were known to be a prominent Gaelic family, with several members holding positions of authority and influence within their communities. Over time, the Round surname spread to other parts of Ireland, including County Clare and County Kerry.
During the period of English colonization in Ireland, many Irish families anglicized their surnames to align with English naming conventions. As a result, some individuals with the surname Round opted to change their name to variants such as Rudden or Reddan. However, the Round surname still remains in use today, primarily among individuals of Irish descent.
