The surname McQuay or MacQuay has its roots in Ireland and belongs to the Gaelic language tradition. It is derived from the personal name MacAodha, meaning "son of Aodh." Aodh was a popular given name in ancient Ireland, with its meaning being "fire" or "brilliance." The prefix "Mac" indicates "son of," similar to the Scottish "Mc." Therefore, McQuay or MacQuay can be translated to mean "son of Aodh."

The name MacAodha can be traced back to the ancient clan O'Hughes, which hailed from the Ulster region of Ireland. As part of the Gaelic tradition, surnames were often derived from the names of ancestors or important figures in the clan's history. Thus, McQuay or MacQuay became a common surname within the O'Hughes clan. Over time, the spelling and pronunciation of surnames evolved, leading to variations such as McQuay or MacQuay.

The O'Hughes clan played a significant role in Irish history, particularly during the medieval period. They were known for their warrior spirit and their involvement in numerous battles and conflicts. As Ireland underwent social and political changes, many families with the surname McQuay or MacQuay migrated to other parts of the world, including the United States, Canada, and Australia, as part of the Irish diaspora. Today, individuals with the surname McQuay or MacQuay can be found throughout the world, proudly carrying their Irish heritage.
