The surname Noone or O'Noone is of Irish origin and has an interesting history. It is derived from the Gaelic name Ó Nuadháin, which means "descendant of Nuadhán." The prefix "Ó" means "descendant of" and is commonly found in Irish surnames. The name Nuadhán comes from the word "nuadh," which means "new" or "fresh" in Gaelic. It is believed that the surname Noone was originally given to someone who was considered a "newcomer" or a "newly arrived" person in a particular area. The O'Noone family was primarily found in County Mayo in the western part of Ireland. They were part of the Uí Fiachrach Aidhne, a branch of the Uí Fiachrach dynasty. The Uí Fiachrach Aidhne were descendants of Fiachrae, a legendary figure in Irish mythology. During the period of English colonization in Ireland, many Irish families anglicized their surnames to make them more acceptable to the ruling English authorities. As a result, the surname Noone or O'Noone may have been altered to variations such as Noon, Nooney, or Noney. Today, individuals with the surname Noone or O'Noone can be found across the world, particularly in countries with significant Irish diaspora communities. The name carries with it a rich history of Irish heritage and ancestry.
