The surname Wilmer has its roots in Ireland and is of ancient Gaelic origin. It is derived from the Gaelic name "MacUilbhir," which means "son of Wilbur." The name Wilbur itself is of Germanic origin, and it means "resolute will" or "bold will." The Gaelic form of the name evolved over time to become MacUilbhir, and eventually, it was anglicized to Wilmer.

The Wilmer surname is primarily associated with County Kerry, located in southwestern Ireland. The Wilmer family is believed to have been part of the great Gaelic tribe called the Eoganacht, which was powerful in this region during ancient times. They were known as warriors and landowners, with their territories stretching across Kerry, Cork, and Limerick.

During the medieval period, Ireland saw significant English influence, including the introduction of surnames. Many Gaelic families, including the Wilmer family, anglicized their names to conform to English naming conventions. As a result, the MacUilbhir name became Wilmer.

Over time, some members of the Wilmer family emigrated from Ireland, particularly during the 18th and 19th centuries, due to political and economic factors. They settled in various parts of the world, including the United States, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand, spreading the Wilmer surname across different continents.

Today, the surname Wilmer is still present in Ireland, although it is not as common as it once was. It serves as a reminder of the rich Gaelic heritage and the enduring legacy of the Wilmer family.
