The surname Keating, or its variant O'Keaty, has its roots in Ireland and is derived from the Gaelic name Mac Céitigh or Ó Céitigh. The name originated from the personal name Céitigh, meaning fortunate or kind-hearted.
The Keating/O'Keaty family is believed to have its ancestral roots in the ancient kingdom of Ui Maine, which covered parts of modern-day counties Galway and Roscommon in western Ireland. The Keatings were known as brehons, a respected legal and judicial class in ancient Ireland. They held positions as judges, poets, and scholars, and were renowned for their wisdom and knowledge.
During the 17th and 18th centuries, Ireland experienced significant political and social upheaval, including English colonization and the suppression of Irish culture. Many Keating/O'Keaty families faced hardship and persecution during this period, leading some to emigrate to other countries, particularly the United States and Canada.
Today, descendants of the Keating/O'Keaty family can be found worldwide, with a significant concentration in Ireland, the United States, Canada, and the United Kingdom. The surname has endured, serving as a reminder of the family's rich history and the resilience of the Irish people.
