The surname Going is of Irish origin, and it is derived from the Gaelic name O'Cuinn, which means descendant of Conn. The name Conn is believed to have been a personal name that was common in ancient Ireland. The O'Cuinn clan was originally located in County Clare and County Limerick in the province of Munster.
The O'Cuinns were a prominent family in Irish history, and they were associated with the ruling families of the region. They were known for their military prowess and leadership, and they often held positions of power and authority within their communities.
During the period of English colonization in Ireland, many O'Cuinns anglicized their surname to Going. This was a common practice at the time, as the English authorities encouraged Irish families to adopt English surnames in an effort to assimilate them into English culture. As a result, the surname Going spread throughout Ireland and eventually to other parts of the world as Irish immigrants emigrated to new countries.
Today, the surname Going is still found predominantly in Ireland and among the Irish diaspora, particularly in countries such as the United States, Canada, and Australia. It continues to be a proud symbol of Irish heritage and ancestry.
