The surname Armour, of Irish descent, has an interesting and ancient history. It is derived from the Gaelic name "Mac an Armóraigh," which means "son of the armorer" or "son of the blacksmith." Historically, blacksmiths played a crucial role in society as they were responsible for forging weapons, tools, and armor. The name Armour can be traced back to the medieval period in Ireland when surnames were first used to distinguish individuals. It is believed that the original Armours were part of the Uí Fiachrach dynasty, which was one of the ruling families in the west of Ireland. Over time, the Armours spread throughout the country, settling in various regions. During the 16th and 17th centuries, Ireland experienced significant political and social changes, including the Plantation of Ulster by English and Scottish settlers. Many Armours migrated to other parts of Ireland, Scotland, and England during this period. Some Armours also emigrated to other countries, such as the United States, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand, seeking new opportunities. Today, the surname Armour is still found predominantly in Ireland, especially in counties such as Donegal, Mayo, and Sligo. It is also present in Scotland, particularly in the Lowlands and the Scottish Borders, where many Irish immigrants settled. The Armours have contributed to various fields, including politics, arts, and sports, and continue to carry on their rich heritage and legacy.
