The surname Keats, of Irish descent, has an interesting history that dates back several centuries.
The name Keats is derived from the Gaelic surname Mac Íomhair, which means "son of Íomhar." Íomhar itself is an older form of the name Ivar, which has Norse origins. This suggests that the Keats surname may have originated from the interaction between Gaelic and Norse cultures in Ireland.
During the Viking Age, which lasted from the late 8th century to the mid-11th century, Vikings from Scandinavia established settlements in various parts of Ireland. These Vikings, known as Norse-Gaels, assimilated into Irish society and often took Gaelic names. It is possible that some of these Norse-Gaels adopted the name Íomhar, which eventually evolved into Keats.
Over time, the Keats surname spread across Ireland, with families bearing the name residing in different regions of the country. Some Keats families may have also migrated to other parts of the world, such as the United States, Canada, and Australia, as part of the Irish diaspora.
Today, individuals with the surname Keats can be found around the world, proudly carrying the rich history of their Irish ancestry.
