The surname Waters has its origins in Ireland and is derived from the Gaelic word "Uaitir" which means "river" or "water". It is a topographical surname, commonly given to people who lived near rivers, streams, or bodies of water.
The name Waters has been found in various regions of Ireland, especially in counties such as Cork, Limerick, and Galway. In these areas, the surname was often anglicized from the original Irish form to Waters.
During the period of English colonization in Ireland, many Irish families adopted English surnames, and the name Waters became more commonly used. Some bearers of the surname Waters can trace their ancestry back to the Anglo-Norman settlers who arrived in Ireland in the 12th century.
Over time, the Waters family spread to other parts of the world, particularly to countries with significant Irish diaspora such as the United States, Canada, and Australia. Today, the surname Waters can be found throughout these countries as well as in Ireland.
The name Waters carries a sense of connection to nature and water, reflecting the ancestral ties to rivers and streams in Ireland.
