The surname Keegan or Egan is of Irish origin, deriving from the Gaelic name "Mac Aodhagain". The prefix "Mac" means "son of", while "Aodhagain" is a diminutive form of "Aodh", which translates to "fire"--a reference to the Celtic god of the sun. Thus, the name Mac Aodhagain can be understood as "son of little fire".

The Keegan/Egan lineage is believed to have originated in County Roscommon, which is in the Connacht province of Ireland. The family was known as hereditary lawyers or "Brehons" to the O'Connors, Kings of Connacht, thus holding a high social standing. Over time, the surname evolved from Mac Aodhagain to Egan, and then to Keegan as Anglicization occurred.

Despite the widespread dispersal of the Irish due to political and economical factors, particularly the Great Famine of the mid-1800s, the Keegan/Egan name remains strongly associated with Irish heritage. Today, the surname is quite common in Ireland, and it's also found in many Irish diaspora communities around the world.

In conclusion, Keegan or Egan is a surname deeply rooted in Irish history, embodying a rich cultural heritage and a story of survival and adaptation through the ages.
