The surname Reilly, or its variant O'Reilly, has its origins in Ireland and is associated with Irish descent. Reilly is an anglicized form of the Irish Gaelic surname Ó Raghallaigh, meaning descendant of Raghallach. The prefix Ó indicates descendant of, while Raghallaigh is derived from the personal name Raghallach, meaning valiant or courageous.
The Ó Raghallaigh clan was one of the oldest and most powerful dynasties in Ireland, with their stronghold in County Cavan. They held significant authority and were known for their military prowess and leadership. The surname Reilly/O'Reilly became widespread as the descendants spread across Ireland.
During the period of English colonization and the Cromwellian era in Ireland, the Reilly/O'Reilly clan resisted British rule and fought against the encroachment of their lands. They were active participants in various uprisings and rebellions, including the 1641 Irish Rebellion and the 1798 Rebellion.
Over time, many individuals with the Reilly/O'Reilly surname emigrated from Ireland to various parts of the world, particularly during the Irish diaspora of the 19th and early 20th centuries. Today, people with the surname Reilly or O'Reilly can be found in Ireland and among Irish communities across the globe, carrying with them a rich history and heritage rooted in Irish culture and resistance.
