The surname Hanraghan, or O'Hanraghan, has its origins in Irish Gaelic, though its etymology is not very clear. The prefix "O," meaning "descendant of," suggests a patrilineal lineage, which was a common feature in Gaelic naming traditions. This prefix was often anglicized to "O'" in many Irish surnames.

The surname itself likely derives from the Irish name "O hAnrachain," which could be associated with the Gaelic word "anrachán," meaning "the storm" or "the tempest." This suggests that the name might have originally referred to a person with a tempestuous nature or possibly to a family that lived in an area prone to fierce weather.

Surnames in Ireland became necessary when the government introduced a taxation system during the reign of King Henry VIII in the 1500s, prompting families to adopt fixed hereditary names. The O'Hanraghan name, like many others, would have become more uniform in spelling due to English administrative practices. Over time, the prefix "O" was often dropped due to English influence and suppression of Gaelic culture, leading to variations like Hanraghan.

The Hanraghan surname is less common than many other Irish surnames, and its bearers would have had their own distinct clan or family group in Ireland. However, specific historical records pertaining to the family's origins or notable members are not well-documented in widely accessible sources. Like many Irish families, those with the Hanraghan surname may have emigrated during periods such as the Great Famine of the mid-19th century, leading to the spread of the name beyond Ireland's shores.
