The surname Selby has a rich history, particularly among those of Irish descent. The origins of the name can be traced back to medieval times in England. Selby is derived from the Old Norse personal name "Selr," which means "hall" or "manor." The name was commonly used as a locational surname, indicating that the bearer hailed from Selby, a town in North Yorkshire, England. During the medieval period, Ireland experienced significant migration and settlement from England, Scotland, and Wales. As a result, many English surnames, including Selby, made their way to Ireland. The surname Selby became established in various parts of the country, particularly in areas with English influence such as Dublin and Cork. Over time, the Selby family in Ireland expanded and branched out, creating different lineages and variations of the surname. Some branches adopted Gaelic versions of the name, while others retained the original English spelling. As with many Irish surnames, the Selby name also underwent variations in pronunciation and spelling due to regional accents and dialects. Today, individuals with the surname Selby can be found worldwide, with a significant concentration in Ireland and the United Kingdom. Many individuals of Irish descent with the surname Selby take pride in their family's history and heritage, preserving their cultural roots through genealogical research and participation in Irish cultural events.
