The surname Flynn, or O'Flynn, has its origins in Ireland and is derived from the Gaelic Ó Floinn, meaning descendant of Flann. The name Flann itself means ruddy or red, and was a common personal name in ancient Ireland. The O'Flynn family were originally from the province of Munster, and were part of the Dál gCais tribal grouping.
The O'Flynn clan played a prominent role in Irish history, particularly in the region of Cork. They were part of the powerful Eóganachta dynasty, which was one of the leading royal dynasties of Munster. The O'Flynn's were known for their military prowess and were involved in numerous conflicts and battles throughout Irish history.
During the period of English colonization in Ireland, many O'Flynn's were displaced from their lands and forced into exile. As a result, many members of the O'Flynn family emigrated to other countries, particularly the United States, where the surname Flynn became more common.
Today, the surname Flynn is one of the most widespread and recognizable Irish surnames in the world, due in part to the success and fame of individuals with this name, such as actor Errol Flynn and author Nick Flynn.
