The surname McInerney is of Irish origin and is derived from the Gaelic name Mac an Airchinnigh, which means son of the erenagh. The erenagh was a hereditary ecclesiastical office in ancient Ireland, responsible for managing church lands and collecting rents. The surname therefore indicates a familial connection to this important role.
The McInerney name is primarily associated with County Clare, located in the western province of Munster in Ireland. It is believed that the family originated from the ancient kingdom of Thomond, which covered parts of modern-day Clare and Limerick. The McInerneys were historically prominent landowners and were closely associated with the O'Briens, who were the ruling family of Thomond.
During the centuries of British colonization and English influence in Ireland, many Irish surnames underwent anglicization. The name McInerney was often spelled and pronounced differently, such as MacInerny or Minchinerny. However, in recent times, there has been a resurgence in using the original Gaelic spelling and pronunciation of the name.
Today, the McInerney surname can be found not only in Ireland but also in countries with significant Irish diaspora, such as the United States, Canada, Australia, and the United Kingdom. Many individuals with this surname take pride in their Irish heritage and continue to celebrate their ancestral roots.
