The surname Catton, with Irish origins, has an interesting history. It is derived from the Gaelic name Mac Ciatáin, which translates to "son of Ciatán." This Gaelic personal name is believed to have originated from the word "ciat," meaning "tangle" or "curly." The name could have referred to someone with curly hair or perhaps someone who had a tangled or complicated personality.
The Catton surname has its roots in County Fermanagh in Northern Ireland. It was predominantly found in this region, particularly in the townland of Drumhose.
During the period of Irish history known as the Plantation of Ulster in the 17th century, many Scottish settlers arrived in Fermanagh. It is possible that some individuals with the surname Catton were of Scottish descent and migrated to Ireland during this time.
Over the centuries, the Catton name has spread beyond its origins in Fermanagh. Many individuals with this surname have emigrated to countries such as the United States, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand, among others.
Today, the Catton surname can still be found in various parts of the world, connecting individuals to their Irish roots and the history of County Fermanagh.
