The surname Welch or Welsh, of Irish descent, has a long and fascinating history. The name itself originates from the Old English word "welisc," meaning foreign or non-English. It is possible that it was originally used as a nickname for someone who spoke a different language or came from a different country.

In Ireland, the Welsh surname is believed to have been brought over by settlers from Wales during the Norman invasion in the 12th century. These settlers, known as the Cambro-Normans, established themselves in various parts of Ireland, particularly in the southeast and southwest regions. Over time, the surname became anglicized to Welch or Welsh.

The Welsh family name has also been associated with the Irish clans known as the Mac Uilliam Uachtar and Mac Coitir. These clans, which were part of the larger Uí Néill dynasty, held significant power in medieval Ireland. It is likely that some individuals with the surname Welsh in Ireland can trace their ancestry back to these clans.

Today, individuals with the surname Welsh can be found not only in Ireland but also in other parts of the world, particularly in countries with large Irish diaspora communities such as the United States, Canada, and Australia. The name carries with it a sense of heritage and belonging, serving as a reminder of the rich history and cultural connections between Ireland and Wales.
