The surname Donaldson, specifically of Irish descent, has an interesting history.
The name originated from the Gaelic name "MacDhonnchaidh," meaning "son of Donnchadh." Donnchadh was a popular personal name in Ireland and Scotland, derived from the elements "donn," meaning "brown," and "cath," meaning "battle."
The Donaldson surname is believed to have originated in the County of Donegal in Ireland. The clan associated with this surname was known as Clann Domhnaill, meaning "children of Donald." They were descendants of the Irish High Kings of the Uí Néill dynasty, one of the most powerful dynasties in medieval Ireland.
During the Scottish Plantation of Ulster in the 17th century, many families bearing the Donaldson surname migrated from Ireland to Scotland. They settled in various parts of Scotland, including the Kinnairdie area, hence the addition of "Kinnairdie" to the surname.
Over time, the surname Donaldson (Kinnairdie) became common among the Irish diaspora in Scotland and later spread to other parts of the world through emigration. Today, individuals with this surname can be found in many countries, particularly in countries with Irish or Scottish heritage, such as the United States, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand.
