The surname Briggs has ancient origins and is of English and Scottish descent. However, there is also a significant presence of the Briggs surname in Ireland. The name is believed to have originated from the Gaelic name Mac an Bhreitheamhnaigh, which means 'son of the judge'. Over time, this Gaelic name was anglicized to Briggs.

The Briggs surname first appeared in Ireland during the Anglo-Norman invasion in the 12th century. Many Norman families, including the Briggs, settled in Ireland and adopted Irish surnames. The Briggs family became prominent landowners and took part in the governance of local communities. They were often found in positions of authority, serving as judges or magistrates.

During the period of English colonization in Ireland, which began in the 16th century, the Briggs surname spread further. Many English settlers in Ireland adopted Irish surnames to assimilate into the local culture. As a result, the Briggs surname became more common among Irish families.

Today, individuals with the Briggs surname can be found throughout Ireland and the Irish diaspora. Many have traced their ancestry back to the original Norman settlers, while others may have adopted the Briggs name more recently. The surname remains a testament to the enduring influence of Gaelic and Anglo-Norman heritage in Ireland.
