The surname Goldie, of Irish descent, has a rich and fascinating history. The name itself is derived from the Gaelic word "Ó Goillidhe," meaning "descendant of the foreigner." It is believed that the original bearers of this surname were Viking settlers who arrived in Ireland in the 9th and 10th centuries. These Vikings, known as the Gallóglaigh, were skilled warriors who often intermarried with the local population.
Over time, the surname evolved and became anglicized to Goldie. The name spread throughout Ireland, particularly in the northern regions. Many Goldies were found in counties such as Antrim, Down, and Donegal. They became part of the Gaelic Irish community and took on Gaelic traditions and customs.
During the 19th century, Ireland experienced a significant wave of emigration. Many Goldies left their homeland in search of better opportunities in the United States, Canada, Australia, and other parts of the world. These emigrants carried their surname with them, spreading the Goldie name to new lands.
Today, individuals with the surname Goldie can be found in various countries, including Ireland, Scotland, England, the United States, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. They carry with them a rich heritage and a connection to their Viking ancestors. The surname Goldie serves as a reminder of the diverse cultural influences that have shaped Irish history.
