The surname Carter has a rich history, particularly among those with Irish descent. It is a common occupational surname that originated in England during the medieval period. The name derives from the Old English word "craetere," which means "one who transports goods by cart." This suggests that the original bearers of the surname were carters or carmen, individuals who were responsible for transporting goods using horse-drawn carts.

Over time, the surname Carter spread to Ireland through migration and intermarriage. Many English settlers arrived in Ireland during the 16th and 17th centuries, particularly during the Plantation of Ireland. These settlers brought with them their surnames, including Carter, which became assimilated into the Irish population.

It is worth noting that variations of the name, such as McCartan or Mac Artáin, are also present in Ireland, reflecting the Gaelicization of surnames that occurred over time.
