The surname Fogarty, sometimes spelled as O'Fogarty, has its origins in Ireland and is of Gaelic origin. The name is derived from the Gaelic personal name Fogartach, which means exiled or banished. It is believed to have been given to people who were exiled or forced to leave their land in ancient Ireland.

The Fogarty clan originated in the province of Munster, particularly in County Tipperary, where they held significant power and were considered one of the leading Gaelic families. They were known for their involvement in political and military affairs, and their influence extended to neighboring counties.

During the Norman invasion of Ireland in the 12th century, the clan resisted the foreign rule and maintained their Gaelic traditions. However, over time, they faced setbacks and were gradually assimilated into the Anglo-Norman system.

As with many Irish surnames, the prefix O' (meaning descendant or grandson) was often dropped during the Anglicization of names, resulting in the variation of Fogarty without the O'.

Today, descendants of the Fogarty or O'Fogarty clan can be found worldwide, particularly in countries with significant Irish diaspora such as the United States, Canada, Australia, and the United Kingdom. The name Fogarty continues to be a reminder of the proud Irish heritage and the resilience of the clan throughout history.
