McCoy (surname) McCoy is a common surname of Scottish origin in the lands of Kintyre and then Irish (Gallowglass) origin. It is an Anglicisation of its Irish Gaelic form Mac Aodha, meaning "son of Aodh" (an old word for "Fire", a Celtic deity). It is particularly found in Ulster (Counties Antrim, Armagh and Monaghan) where many settled around the 13th century, having been Gallowglasses, and also in counties Limerick and Cork. Aoidh and Mac Aoigh were sometimes Anglicised as Hugh and McHugh.

Gallowglass The gallowglasses (also spelt galloglass, gallowglas or galloglas; from Irish: "gall óglaigh" meaning foreign warriors) were a class of elite mercenary warriors who were principally members of the Norse-Gaelic clans of Scotland between the mid 13th century and late 16th century. As Scots, they were Gaels and shared a common background and language with the Irish, but as they had intermarried with the 10th century Norse settlers of western Scotland, the Irish called them "Gall Gaeil" ("foreign Gaels").

Gaelic revival The Gaelic revival (Irish: "Athbheochan na Gaeilge" ) was the late-nineteenth-century national revival of interest in the Irish language (then known as "Gaelic", which is more often applied to Scottish Gaelic today) and Irish Gaelic culture (including folklore, sports, music, arts, etc.). Irish had diminished as a spoken tongue, remaining the main daily language only in isolated rural areas, with English having become the dominant language in the majority of Ireland.

Flaith A flaith (Irish) or flath (Modern Scottish Gaelic), plural flatha, in the Gaelic world, could refer to any member in general of a powerful family enjoying a high degree of sovereignty, and so is also sometimes translated as lord or aristocrat in the general sense, or can refer to sovereignty itself. Thus it did not usually refer to a specific position such as "Rí" (king) which any given "flaith" might or might not hold, allowing for the term to eventually develop the slightly alternative meaning of any hereditary high aristocrat who was understood to be subordinate to the king. In this later sense a "flaith" was similar to a magnate or Grandee.

Pseudo-anglicism Pseudo-anglicisms are words in languages other than English which were borrowed from English but are used in a way native English speakers would not readily recognize or understand. Pseudo-anglicisms often take the form of compound words, combining elements of multiple English words to create a new word that appears to be English but is unrecognisable to a native speaker of English. It is also common for a genuine English word to be used to mean something completely different from its original meaning.

Mullaney Mullaney is a surname of Irish origin (from Connacht). It is an Anglicised form of the Gaelic "Ó Maoil Sheanaigh" meaning "descendant of "Maoilsheanaigh"". The Gaelic personal name "Maoilsheanaigh" means "devotee of (Saint) "Seanach"" and the personal name "Seanach" is made up of the element sean meaning "ancient", "old". Many spellings of Connacht named omit the "Sh" and in consequence one theory is that "Mullaney" may be an Anglicisation of "Ó Maoileanaigh" "descendant of "Maoileanach"". The personal name "Maoileanach" means "chief of the marsh". An Ulster family, unrelated to the Connacht family, bore the name "Ó Maoileanaigh".
