FLAHERTY
VARIATIONS S-O'FIaherty, O'Fla-
hertle, OffiahertIe.
RACIAL oRIoIN-Irish.
SoURcE-A given name.


This family name is one OF particu-
lar interest to the student Of nomen-
clature for two reasons. One is Its
extreme antiquity, even among Irish
surnames. which. as clan names, an
tedated the family names Of England.
and for. the most part those OF Scot
land.
The other is the peculiar variation
which has arisen In the anglicizing
of the name by which the prefixed
''O' has become the initial letter OF
the name itself. This development is
most unusual in Irish names, and Is
found in just few of them, with
the variation by no means widespread.
The clan of O'Flaherty dates. ap-
parently. from some time prior to the
third century A. D., and it arose to
the dignity of independent clanship
after having come into existence as
Il sept Of the OConnors Of Coramrudh
Cor Sorcomroe).
The Irish spelling of the name is
Formidable. 1t is "O'Flaithbear-
taighe," derived from the given name
of "Flathartach." which, in turn. was
derived from the Irish words faith"
ana "beartach." meaning clever
chieftain."
