The surname Sheehy, also sometimes spelled McSheehy, has its origins in Ireland. It is an anglicized version of the Gaelic name "Ó Síodaigh," which means "descendant of Síodaigh." The name Síodaigh itself is derived from the word "síoda," meaning "silk," suggesting that the original bearers of the name may have been involved in the silk trade. The Sheehy/McSheehy name is most commonly associated with the Munster region of Ireland, particularly in County Kerry and County Cork. The earliest recorded instances of the surname can be traced back to the 14th century, indicating a long history in the area. The Sheehy/McSheehy clan was part of the larger Eóganacht Raithlind dynasty, which was one of the ruling dynasties of Munster. They held significant land and were involved in local politics and warfare. Over time, the family spread out across Ireland and beyond due to various factors such as migration, economic opportunities, and political unrest. Like many Irish surnames, the Sheehy/McSheehy name experienced anglicization during the period of English colonization in Ireland. This involved the translation of Gaelic names into English equivalents, leading to variations in spelling and pronunciation. Today, descendants of the Sheehy/McSheehy clan can be found not only in Ireland but also in countries such as the United States, Canada, Australia, and the United Kingdom, where migration and diaspora have led to the spread of Irish surnames.
