The surname Otter has its origins in Ireland, and its history can be traced back several centuries. The name is derived from the Gaelic "O hUchtair," meaning "descendant of Uchtar."
The Uchtar clan was a prominent family in ancient Ireland and held a position of power and influence in their respective communities. They were known for their bravery in battle and their leadership abilities. Over time, the surname O hUchtair evolved into Otter, as Gaelic names were anglicized during the period of English rule in Ireland.
The Otter family can be found in various regions of Ireland, with concentrations in counties such as Galway, Mayo, and Roscommon. They were often associated with the land and were known for their agricultural pursuits.
The Otter surname has also spread beyond Ireland, with many individuals of Irish descent carrying the name today. Immigration and migration patterns have led to the dispersal of the Otter family across the United States, Canada, Australia, and other parts of the world.
Today, individuals with the surname Otter can take pride in their Irish heritage and the rich history associated with their family name.
