The surname Reynolds has a rich history, particularly among those of Irish descent. The name originates from the Gaelic name Mac Raghnaill, meaning son of Raghnaill. In ancient Ireland, the Mac Raghnaill clan was associated with the province of Connacht.
During the medieval period, the Reynolds family played a significant role in Irish politics and society. They held positions of power and were known for their wealth and influence. However, with the arrival of English settlers in Ireland, the Reynolds clan faced numerous challenges.
The 16th and 17th centuries were particularly tumultuous for the Reynolds family. Many of them were forced to flee their ancestral lands due to political unrest and the imposition of English rule. Some Reynolds individuals migrated to other parts of Ireland or emigrated to countries like the United States, Canada, and Australia.
Today, the surname Reynolds is relatively common among people of Irish heritage, both in Ireland and throughout the Irish diaspora. The name has spread far and wide, and many individuals with the surname Reynolds still proudly claim their Irish roots.
On the other hand, the surname McRannell is less widely known and appears to be a variation or anglicized version of the Reynolds surname. The specific history and origins of the McRannell name are less well-documented, and it is likely a less common variation of the Reynolds surname within the Irish diaspora.
