The surname Reid is of Scottish and Irish origin. In the case of Irish descent, Reid is an anglicized version of the Gaelic surname Ó Riada or Mac Riada, which means "impulsive" or "riotous." The Ó Riada sept originated in County Tipperary in the province of Munster, while the Mac Riada sept was associated with County Antrim in the province of Ulster.

During the centuries of English rule in Ireland, Gaelic surnames were often anglicized due to various reasons, including the suppression of Irish culture and the pressure to assimilate into English society. This led to the adoption of surnames like Reid as alternatives to Ó Riada and Mac Riada.

The Reid surname also has Scottish roots and is derived from the Old English word "read," meaning "red." In Scotland, the name Reid was often used to describe someone with red hair or a ruddy complexion. Scottish Reids were typically found in areas such as Aberdeenshire, where they played significant roles in the local communities.

Over time, many Irish and Scottish Reids migrated to other parts of the world, including North America, Australia, and New Zealand. Today, the Reid surname is still prominent in these areas, reflecting the enduring legacy of its Irish and Scottish origins.
