The surname Michelson, although commonly associated with Irish descent, does not have its origins in Ireland. Instead, it is derived from the Hebrew personal name "Michael," meaning "who is like God?" The name Michael has been widely used in many cultures and has found its way into various languages, including Irish. During the Middle Ages, as surnames began to develop and become hereditary, the prefix "Mac" (meaning "son of") was added to "Michael" to form the Gaelic surname "Mac Mhícheáil." Over time, this Gaelic form evolved and was anglicized to "MacMichael" or "McMichael." In some cases, the anglicized form of MacMichael further evolved into the surname Michelson. This change could have occurred due to linguistic shifts or the influence of other languages spoken in the area. It is important to note that surnames can have multiple origins and variations, and individuals with the surname Michelson may have diverse ancestral backgrounds. While the surname Michelson may not have direct Irish origins, it is possible that some individuals with this surname may indeed have Irish ancestry. Overall, the surname Michelson, originally derived from the Hebrew name Michael, has undergone various transformations and may be associated with Irish descent in some cases.
