The surname Kee or McKee has a rich history rooted in Irish descent. It is an anglicized form of the Gaelic name Mac Aodha, meaning son of Aodh. Aodh was a popular Irish given name derived from the Celtic god of fire and the sun.
The McKee surname originated in Ireland during the medieval period when surnames were becoming more common. The clan associated with the name was predominantly located in Ulster, particularly in counties Antrim and Down. They were known to be a powerful and influential Gaelic Irish clan.
During the 16th and 17th centuries, Ireland underwent a series of conflicts and upheavals, including English colonization efforts. Many Irish clans, including the McKees, faced oppression and displacement. Some members of the clan chose to migrate to other countries, particularly to North America, to seek better opportunities and escape persecution.
The surname Kee also has Irish roots, with similar origins as McKee. It is most commonly found in the province of Ulster, particularly in counties Cavan and Monaghan. Over time, some Kee families have anglicized their surname to Key, Kay, or Kea.
Today, individuals with the surname Kee or McKee can be found worldwide, with a significant presence in Ireland, the United Kingdom, the United States, Canada, and Australia. They continue to carry on their Irish heritage and contribute to the diverse tapestry of their respective communities.
