The surname Collins has a rich history, particularly among those of Irish descent. It derives from the Gaelic name "O'Coileáin," meaning "descendant of Coileán." The Coileán clan was originally from County Cork in Ireland.

During the Anglo-Norman invasion of Ireland in the 12th century, many Irish clans anglicized their names to fit into the English-dominated society. This resulted in the Coileán clan adopting the surname Collins. As a result, the name became widespread throughout Ireland.

Over the centuries, the Collins family grew in prominence and spread throughout the country. They were involved in various historical events, including the Irish rebellion against English rule. The Collins name is particularly associated with Michael Collins, an influential figure in the struggle for Irish independence during the early 20th century.

Many Collins families emigrated from Ireland during the Great Famine in the mid-19th century, seeking better opportunities in countries like the United States, Canada, and Australia. As a result, the name became established in these countries as well.

Today, the surname Collins is still quite common among those with Irish ancestry, both in Ireland and in communities around the world. It serves as a reminder of the resilience and heritage of the Irish people.
