The surname Droney or O'Droney is of Irish origin and is derived from the Gaelic name O'Druachta, which is believed to be of ancient Irish origin. The O'Droney family were a sept of the Ui Fiachrach dynasty, who were descendants of Fiachra, a legendary King of Connacht. The name O'Droney is derived from the Gaelic word druachta which means harm or strife, suggesting that the original bearer of the name may have been involved in conflicts or battles.
The O'Droney family were historically associated with County Mayo in the west of Ireland, and were said to have been a prominent and influential clan in the region. They were known for their involvement in the local politics and were often recognized as chieftains and leaders.
The O'Droney name has evolved over time to become Droney, and is now found in various parts of the world, particularly in countries with a significant Irish diaspora. Today, the name is often found in the United States, Canada, Australia, and the United Kingdom, among other countries.
The O'Droney family name has a rich and ancient history, and those who bear it can take pride in their Irish heritage and the legacy of their ancestors.
