The surname Logan has its origins in Ireland and is believed to have been derived from the Gaelic name O'Leoghain, meaning descendant of Leoghan. The name Leoghan, in turn, is derived from the Irish word leodh, meaning ugly or calf.
The Logan clan was originally located in County Donegal in northwest Ireland. They were said to be descendants of the ancient Irish ruler Niall of the Nine Hostages, who established the powerful Uí Néill dynasty. The Logans were known for their fierce warrior traditions and were involved in various conflicts throughout Irish history.
During the 17th century, when England began its colonization efforts in Ireland, many Irish families, including the Logans, faced persecution and displacement. This led to a significant emigration of the Logan clan to other countries, particularly Scotland and North America. Today, the surname Logan is common in Scotland and among the Irish diaspora in the United States, Canada, and Australia.
The Logan name has also gained prominence in various fields. One notable figure is James Logan, an Irish-born statesman and scholar who served as the mayor of Philadelphia in the early 18th century. Additionally, Logan has become a popular given name in recent years, further contributing to its recognition and usage.
