The surname Delahyde has its origins in Ireland and is derived from the Gaelic O'hEidigh, which means descendant of Eidigh. The O'hEidighs were a prominent Irish sept that was originally located in County Galway. The name Eidigh itself is believed to have been derived from the word eidhean, which means ivy.
The Delahyde surname is closely associated with the O'hEidigh sept and has been used interchangeably with O'hEidigh and Hyde throughout history. The family was historically associated with the ecclesiastical order, and many members of the sept were educated and held positions of influence within the church.
During the 17th century, many members of the O'hEidigh sept were forced to Anglicize their names due to the English conquest of Ireland. This led to the adoption of the surname Delahyde, which has been used by descendants of the original sept ever since.
Over time, the Delahyde surname has spread beyond Ireland, particularly to countries such as the United States, Canada, and Australia, as a result of Irish emigration. Today, descendants of the Delahyde family can be found around the world, although the surname still maintains its strong connection to its Irish origins.
