The surname Kieran, or its variant O'Kieran, has deep roots in Irish history and is associated with Irish descent. It is derived from the Irish Gaelic name "Ciarán," which means "dark-haired" or "dark-skinned."

The name Ciarán was quite popular in early medieval Ireland and was borne by several notable figures, including Saint Ciarán of Clonmacnoise, a renowned Irish saint and one of the Twelve Apostles of Ireland. As a result of his influence and the reverence for him, the name Ciarán became widespread in Ireland.

Over time, the surname Kieran evolved from the use of the given name Ciarán as a hereditary family name. The prefix "O," meaning "descendant of," was often added to the name, resulting in the surname O'Kieran. This practice of using a patronymic surname was common in ancient Ireland.

The O'Kieran family is believed to have originated in County Offaly in the Irish midlands and was associated with the ancient Gaelic kingdom of Uí Failghe. As part of the Gaelic nobility, the O'Kierans held positions of power and authority within the local community.

Today, individuals with the surname Kieran or O'Kieran can often trace their ancestry back to this ancient Irish lineage. The name has spread beyond Ireland, with descendants of Irish immigrants carrying the surname in various parts of the world.
