The surname Royston has an interesting history, particularly for those of Irish descent. It is derived from the Old English personal name "Rohes," meaning "fame," and the Old English word "tun," which translates to "settlement" or "enclosure." This suggests that the name originally referred to a settlement of a person known for their fame or renown. Over time, the name evolved to become Royston.
In Ireland, the surname Royston is predominantly found in the province of Ulster. During the medieval period, many English settlers arrived in Ireland and brought their surnames with them. It is likely that Royston was one of these surnames, adopted by English settlers who made their homes in Ulster.
Irish surnames often have multiple origins, and it is also possible that the surname Royston has Gaelic roots. Some sources suggest that it may be an anglicized version of the Gaelic surname "O'Rothlain," which means "descendant of Rothlain." However, this theory is debated among genealogists, and further research is needed to establish a definitive link between Royston and any specific Gaelic surname.
Overall, the history of the surname Royston for those of Irish descent is intertwined with English settlement in Ireland and the evolution of the name over time.
