The surname Croke or Crook has its roots in Ireland and can be traced back to ancient times. The name itself is derived from the Old Norse word "krókr," meaning "hook" or "crook," suggesting that the original bearers of this surname may have been blacksmiths or people associated with hooks or crooks.

In early Irish history, surnames were not hereditary, but rather descriptive or occupational in nature. It wasn't until the 10th century that surnames began to be passed down from one generation to another. The Croke surname is believed to have originated in the province of Munster in the south of Ireland, specifically in County Cork and County Waterford.

During the Norman Invasion of Ireland in the 12th century, many families adopted surnames of Anglo-Norman origin. The Croke surname is thought to have been introduced to Ireland during this time, as it has strong Norman connections. The Crokes were a prominent Norman family in Ireland, associated with the County Limerick region.

Over the centuries, the spelling of the surname may have undergone variations, with Crook and Croke being the most common. Today, descendants of the Croke or Crook families can be found around the world, particularly in countries with significant Irish diaspora. The name has also been passed down through generations and continues to be used as a surname today.
