The surname Kibble, of Irish descent, has an interesting history that dates back centuries. The name is derived from the Gaelic word "ciobal," meaning "a basket." It is believed that the name was originally an occupational surname, given to individuals who made or sold baskets.
During medieval times, surnames became more common, and the Kibble name started to be recorded in official documents. The Kibble family likely resided in Ireland, as the name has strong Irish origins. It is possible that they were part of the Gaelic ruling class or belonged to a specific clan.
Over time, the Kibble family spread throughout Ireland, with branches settling in various regions. They may have been involved in agriculture or trade, as these were common occupations in Ireland during that time.
As with many Irish surnames, the Kibble name faced challenges during periods of political and social unrest. The Irish Potato Famine in the mid-19th century caused widespread hardship and forced many Irish families, including those with the surname Kibble, to emigrate to other countries, such as the United States and Canada.
Today, individuals with the surname Kibble can be found in various parts of the world, but the Irish origins of the name continue to be an important part of its history.
