The surname Cromwell is of English origin, derived from the Old English words crumb meaning bent or crooked, and wella meaning stream or spring. The name likely originated as a topographic surname to describe someone who lived near a crooked stream.
In Irish history, the name Cromwell became associated with the infamous English military and political leader Oliver Cromwell, who played a significant role in the English Civil War and the subsequent conquest of Ireland in the mid-17th century. Cromwell's forces were responsible for the brutal subjugation of the Irish population, particularly in the massacre at Drogheda in 1649.
Due to the negative connotations associated with the name Cromwell in Ireland, many Irish families with this surname changed it to alternatives such as Cromwellian or Crofton. Despite this, there are still individuals with the surname Cromwell in Ireland today, although the name is not as common as it is in England.
