The surname Kindelan, also spelled O'Kindelan, has its roots in Ireland and is of Gaelic origin. It is derived from the Gaelic name Ó Cinnfhaoláin, which translates to "descendant of Cinnfhaolán." The prefix "Ó" means "descendant of," indicating that the family originated from a notable ancestor named Cinnfhaolán. The name Cinnfhaolán is believed to have derived from the Gaelic words "cinn," meaning "head," and "faolán," meaning "little wolf." This suggests that the original ancestor may have possessed characteristics associated with a wolf or had a connection with wolves. The Kindelan/O'Kindelan family is associated with County Offaly in the province of Leinster, Ireland. Throughout history, they were part of the ancient Gaelic nobility and played significant roles in their respective communities. They were often landowners, chieftains, or warriors, contributing to the defense and governance of their lands. During the period of English colonization in Ireland, many Irish families, including the Kindelan/O'Kindelan clan, experienced significant hardships. The introduction of English laws and land confiscations led to the erosion of their power and influence. As a result, many Irish families were forced to anglicize their surnames or adopt new ones altogether. Today, the surname Kindelan or O'Kindelan is still found in Ireland and among Irish diaspora communities around the world. Many individuals with this surname are proud of their Irish heritage and strive to preserve their cultural identity.
