The surname Skerett or Skerit has its origins in Ireland. It is believed to be derived from the Gaelic name "Mac Shitric," which translates to "son of Sitric." The name Sitric itself is a variation of the Old Norse name "Sigtryggr," meaning "victory true." The Norse influence can be attributed to the Viking invasions of Ireland during the 9th and 10th centuries. The Skerett or Skerit family is said to have originated in the province of Connacht, particularly in County Galway. The name was likely anglicized during the period of English rule in Ireland, which began in the 12th century. Anglicization of Irish surnames was a common practice during this time, as the English authorities sought to assimilate the Irish population. Over time, the Skerett or Skerit family spread to other parts of Ireland and even emigrated to other countries. Many individuals with this surname can be found in North America, particularly in the United States and Canada, as a result of Irish immigration during the 19th and early 20th centuries. Today, the surname Skerett or Skerit is relatively uncommon but can still be found among individuals of Irish descent. It serves as a reminder of the family's historical connection to Ireland and the enduring legacy of their ancestors.
