The surname Rankin is of Irish origin and has a rich history that dates back many centuries. It is derived from the Gaelic name Ó Maoilriain, which means "descendant of Maoilriaghain," a personal name that translates to "devotee of Saint Riaghan." The name Riaghan itself is believed to have been derived from the Old Irish word "riagáin," meaning "impetuous." The Rankin family is thought to have originated in County Donegal in Ulster, Ireland, where they were prominent landowners and held positions of authority.

The Rankin name is closely associated with the famous Clan Maclean in Scotland. In the early 17th century, many Rankin families migrated from Ireland to Scotland as part of the Plantation of Ulster. Some of these Rankin families eventually settled in the Scottish Highlands and became part of the Clan Maclean. As a result, the Rankin surname can also be found among the Scottish Macleans.

Over time, members of the Rankin family spread to various parts of the world, including North America and Australia, due to factors such as economic opportunity and political events. Today, the surname Rankin is fairly common among people of Irish and Scottish descent, serving as a reminder of the enduring legacy of this ancient Gaelic name.
