The surname MacIlvain, also spelled MacIllvane or MacElwain, is of Irish origin and is derived from the Gaelic name Mac Giolla Bheathain. The prefix "Mac" means "son of" in Gaelic, while "Giolla Bheathain" is a personal name meaning "servant of Beathan." This name was first found in County Donegal, located in the northern part of Ireland.

The MacIlvain clan belonged to the larger Gaelic group known as the Ui Neill, who were descended from Niall of the Nine Hostages, a legendary High King of Ireland. The Ui Neill were one of the most powerful dynasties in ancient Ireland, and their influence extended throughout the northern provinces.

In the 16th and 17th centuries, many MacIlvain families migrated to Scotland, particularly to the Galloway region. This migration was a result of political and religious conflicts in Ireland, as well as economic opportunities in Scotland. The MacIlvain clan settled in these new lands and integrated into the Scottish society, adopting the language and customs of their new homeland.

Today, individuals with the surname MacIlvain can be found in various parts of the world, including Ireland, Scotland, and other countries with Irish and Scottish diaspora communities. The name has undergone different spellings and variations over time, but its Gaelic origin and Irish heritage remain significant aspects of its history.
