The surname Heffernan, or its variant O'Heffernan, has its origins in Ireland. It is an anglicized form of the Irish Gaelic name Ó hIfearnáin, meaning descendant of Ifearnán.

The Ó hIfearnáin clan was an ancient and noble family in County Tipperary, located in the province of Munster. They were known as hereditary landowners and held a prominent position within the local community. The name Ifearnán itself means little green one or young green one, possibly alluding to an association with a particular landscape or vegetation.

During the medieval period, Ireland underwent English colonization, leading to the anglicization of many Gaelic surnames. This often involved adding the prefix O or Mac to the name, as well as alterations in spelling and pronunciation. The Heffernan surname emerged from this process, with the prefix O being dropped in some cases.

Over time, the Heffernan/O'Heffernan families spread beyond County Tipperary and settled in other parts of Ireland and abroad due to factors such as land disputes, religious conflicts, and economic opportunities. Today, descendants of the Heffernan clan can be found in various countries, particularly in the United States, Canada, and Australia, where many Irish immigrants settled during the 19th and early 20th centuries.
