The surname Martin has deep roots in Ireland, tracing back to the ancient Gaelic people. The name is derived from the personal name Máirtín, which is the Irish form of the Latin name Martinus, meaning warrior of Mars. The name gained popularity in Ireland during the medieval period, with several prominent individuals bearing the surname.

In Ireland, the Martins were associated with the province of Connacht, particularly in the counties of Galway and Mayo. They were prominent landowners and members of the Gaelic nobility. The Martins of Galway held vast estates and played a significant role in the region's political and social affairs.

Notably, one branch of the Martin family, known as the Martyns, established themselves in Galway city and became one of the fourteen Tribes of Galway, a powerful group of merchant families. The Martyns were involved in maritime trade and held positions of influence in the city.

Throughout history, many Martins migrated from Ireland to other parts of the world, particularly during periods of economic hardship and the Great Famine in the 19th century. Today, the surname Martin is common not only in Ireland but also in countries with Irish diaspora, such as the United States, Canada, Australia, and the United Kingdom.
