The surname Simpson has an interesting history, particularly for those of Irish descent. The name originated from the Gaelic name "Mac Shuibhne," meaning "son of Suibhne." Suibhne was a popular given name in ancient Ireland, derived from the word "sú," meaning "good" or "well." The prefix "Mac" indicates "son of" in Gaelic.
The Simpson surname can be traced back to the early medieval period in Ireland. The Mac Shuibhne clan was primarily located in County Donegal, in the northwest of the country. They were known for their strong ties to the ruling O'Neill dynasty and were considered part of the noble class.
During the 17th century, Ireland experienced significant political and religious upheaval. Many Irish families, including the Mac Shuibhne clan, faced increased persecution and were forced to leave their homes. This led to a mass emigration of Irish people, including those with the surname Simpson. Many Irish immigrants settled in North America and other parts of the British Empire.
Today, the surname Simpson is fairly common among those of Irish descent. It is often found in countries such as the United States, Canada, Australia, and the United Kingdom, where Irish immigration was significant. The name has evolved and changed over time, but its Irish roots remain intact.
