The surname Tame has its origins in Ireland, hailing from the Gaelic name "Ó Táim," which loosely translates to "descendant of Tám." The name Tám is derived from the word "támh," meaning "quiet" or "calm."
The Tame family is believed to have originated in County Galway, located on the western coast of Ireland. Over time, they spread to other parts of the country, particularly County Mayo and County Roscommon. The Tame surname is relatively uncommon in Ireland, suggesting that it may have been a localized family name.
During the centuries of British colonization and English influence in Ireland, many Irish surnames, including Tame, underwent anglicization. This involved the translation or adaptation of Irish names into English equivalents. As a result, the surname Tame might also appear as Tamey or O'Tame in some records.
The Irish diaspora, which saw millions of Irish people emigrate to various parts of the world, also played a role in spreading the Tame surname beyond Ireland's shores. Today, individuals with the surname Tame can be found in countries such as the United States, Canada, Australia, and the United Kingdom, among others.
