The surname Gayre, of Irish descent, has an interesting history that can be traced back to ancient Celtic times. The name is derived from the Gaelic word "gaothair," which means "windy" or "stormy."
The first recorded instance of the Gayre surname can be found in Scotland in the 13th century. It is believed that the family originally migrated from Ireland to Scotland during the medieval period. Over time, the Gayre family established themselves in various parts of Scotland, including the Highlands and the Lowlands.
During the medieval and early modern period, the Gayre family played a prominent role in Scottish society. They were often associated with the Gaelic clans and held important positions within their communities. Many Gayres were skilled warriors and were involved in various clan conflicts and battles.
In the early 17th century, some members of the Gayre family migrated from Scotland to Ireland. They settled in different parts of the country, including the counties of Mayo, Sligo, and Donegal. Throughout the centuries, the Gayre surname has become less common in Ireland, but it still has a presence in certain areas.
Today, individuals with the surname Gayre can be found around the world, particularly in Scotland, Ireland, and countries with large Irish diaspora communities. The name continues to carry a sense of pride and heritage for those who bear it.
