The surname Foy, or its original form O'Fie, is of Irish origin and is derived from the Gaelic name O'Fiaich, meaning descendant of Fiaich. The O'Fie family was originally based in the County Louth region of Ireland, and were part of the ruling families of the area.
The O'Fie name can be traced back to ancient Irish tribal leaders, and the family played a prominent role in the history of the region. They were known for their leadership, bravery, and loyalty to their clan. The O'Fie family also had strong ties to the Catholic Church, and several members of the family became prominent ecclesiastical figures in Ireland.
During the period of English colonization in Ireland, many Irish families anglicized their surnames in order to assimilate into English society. As a result, the O'Fie surname became anglicized to Foy, and many members of the family adopted this new form of the name.
Today, the surname Foy is still found predominantly in Ireland, as well as in the diaspora of Irish descendants around the world. The name has also been carried to other countries by Irish immigrants, and can be found in the United States, Canada, Australia, and other nations with significant Irish populations.
