The surname Kirkton has its origins in Ireland. It is derived from the Gaelic word "cirtin," meaning "little church." The name was likely given to someone who either lived near a small church or worked in one.

The name Kirkton is predominantly found in County Donegal and County Derry in Northern Ireland. It is believed that the original bearers of the name were part of the ancient Gaelic clans that inhabited these regions.

During the medieval period, Ireland experienced several waves of invasions, including those by the Vikings and the Normans. These invasions led to the establishment of new settlements and the introduction of new surnames. It is possible that the surname Kirkton was adopted by some individuals during this time as a way to differentiate themselves from other clans.

In the 19th century, Ireland faced widespread social and economic challenges, including the Great Famine. These hardships led to mass emigration, with many Irish families seeking better opportunities in other countries, particularly the United States. As a result, individuals bearing the surname Kirkton can also be found in other parts of the world where Irish immigrants settled.

In modern times, the surname Kirkton remains relatively rare and is often associated with individuals of Irish descent.
