The surname Gowdie has its roots in Irish history. It is an anglicized form of the Gaelic name "Ó Gabháin," which means "descendant of Gabhán." The original Gaelic name was derived from the personal name Gabhán, which means "small hawk." The name was most commonly found in County Longford and County Leitrim in Ireland.

Like many Irish surnames, the spelling of Gowdie has evolved over time. Variations of the name include Gowan, Gowing, and McGowan. These variations can be attributed to the fact that many Irish people were illiterate and relied on others to record their names, resulting in different spellings.

The Gowdie family likely originated in Ireland during the medieval period. They were likely part of the native Gaelic population that faced colonization by the English. Many Irish families, including the Gowdies, were forced to anglicize their names in order to assimilate into English-speaking society and avoid discrimination.

Today, the surname Gowdie can be found in various parts of the world, including the United States, Canada, and Australia, due to Irish emigration during the 19th and 20th centuries. Descendants of the Gowdie family have established themselves in these countries, carrying their proud Irish heritage with them.
