The surname Hickson, particularly of Irish origin, has a history that traces back to the early medieval period. It is an Anglicized form of the Gaelic surname "Ó hEoghusa," which means "descendant of Eoghus," a personal name that is possibly derived from the word "each," meaning horse, suggesting a link to a family known for horsemanship or owning horses.
Over time, as English influence grew in Ireland, many Gaelic names were recorded in English documents in an anglicized form, often bearing little resemblance to their original pronunciation. As a result, "Ó hEoghusa" underwent transformations, with variants such as O'Hosey, O'Hussy, Hosey, Hussey, and eventually Hickson emerging, reflecting the phonetic interpretation by English clerks or the attempt by Gaelic families to adapt their names within an English-speaking context.
The Hickson name is particularly associated with the province of Munster, and more specifically with County Kerry, where the Ó hEoghusa clan was notable. Irish Hicksons can often trace their ancestry back to this region, which remained a stronghold for the name throughout history. The story of the Hickson surname, like many Irish surnames, is one of cultural and linguistic adaptation in the face of political and social changes in Ireland's history.
