The surname Hartigan, or O'Hartagan in its older form, originates from Ireland and has a history that dates back to medieval times. The prefix "O" in the original O'Hartagan signifies "descendant of" or "grandson of," which was a common feature in Irish surnames, indicating a family lineage or clan. Over time, as English influence grew in Ireland and administrative practices changed, many Irish surnames lost their O' and Mac prefixes, leading to the more Anglicized form "Hartigan."

The name Hartigan itself is derived from the Irish Gaelic "Ó hArtagáin," which suggests descent from an ancestor named Artagán. The root "art" in this name likely refers to a bear, signifying strength or valor—a characteristic admired in Irish warrior culture. The Hartigan family is traditionally associated with the province of Munster, particularly the counties of Limerick and Clare, where they held a family seat from ancient times.

As with many Irish families, the Hartigans would have experienced significant social and political upheaval, including the effects of English conquest, the Great Famine, and resultant emigration. Many Hartigans spread around the world, especially to the United States, Australia, and Great Britain, carrying their name with them and contributing to a global diaspora of people of Irish descent. Despite the dispersion, the Hartigan name retains its connection to its Irish roots and the ancient heritage of the clan from which it originated.
