The surname Simon has a rich history, particularly within Irish descent. Derived from the Hebrew name Shimon, meaning he has heard, Simon is often associated with Jewish ancestry. However, it also has a presence among the Irish population.

The name Simon entered Ireland during the medieval period when the Vikings, who had close ties with the Irish, settled in the country. Many Vikings bore the name Sigmundr, which evolved into Simon over time. These Vikings intermarried with the local Irish population, resulting in the adoption of the name by the Irish.

Additionally, Simon may have been brought to Ireland by the Normans, who invaded the country in the 12th century. The Normans were of Viking origin and might have carried the name Simon with them.

The surname Simon was often anglicized to its English equivalent, particularly during the 18th and 19th centuries when Anglicization of Irish names was common. This was due to various socio-political factors, including English influence and the desire for assimilation.

Today, individuals with the surname Simon can be found throughout Ireland, especially in areas with historical Viking or Norman settlements. It is worth noting that while the surname Simon has Irish origins, it is also prevalent in many other countries worldwide due to migrations and the widespread nature of the name itself.
