The surname Hurley, or O'Hurley, is of Irish origin, stemming from the Gaelic name "Ó hUrthuile." The name is derived from the words "hurthuile," meaning "sea tide," signifying the family's deep connection with the sea. The O'Hurleys were believed to be descendants of Eochaidh, a 2nd century King of Munster, a region in the South of Ireland.

Their ancestral lands were primarily located in County Limerick and County Tipperary, where they held significant territories until the anglicization policies of the 16th and 17th centuries. The clan was dispossessed of their lands and scattered across Ireland and abroad. Some O'Hurleys changed their surname to Hurley to better assimilate.

Despite the dispersion, many Hurleys achieved prominence in their new homes. The name appears in historical records across various fields, including politics, the church, and the arts. Notable figures include Bishop Denis Hurley, a champion of social justice, and Michael Hurley, a folk musician.

Today, the Hurley surname is still prevalent in its home counties of Limerick and Tipperary, as well as in the United States, Australia, and other parts of the world to which the Irish diaspora has spread, a testament to the resilience and adaptability the O'Hurleys demonstrated throughout history.
