The surname Fortescue is of Anglo-Norman origin and can be traced back to the 11th century when the Normans invaded England. The name Fortescue is derived from the Old French fort, meaning strong, and escu, meaning shield, and was originally used as a nickname for a strong or brave person. The first recorded use of the surname was in Devon, England, where the family held a family seat from ancient times.

The Fortescue family later spread to Ireland, where they played a significant role in the country's history. They were granted lands in County Louth and County Meath by King Henry II of England in the 12th century, and became prominent figures in Irish society. They held positions of power and influence and were involved in various military and political affairs.

The Fortescue name became well-established in Ireland, and many Irish families adopted it as their own. Over the centuries, the surname has continued to be passed down through generations, and today, there are many people of Irish descent who bear the name Fortescue. The Fortescue family has left a lasting legacy in Ireland, and their surname is a reminder of their historical significance in the country.
