SOURCE-A nickname

For the most part. the Irish clan
names, which were virtually family
names. and have become so absolutely
in modern usage, were formed strictly
from given names, from the names Of
those chieftains who first gathered
about them a sufficient number of fol-
lowers to be designated as a clan. But
sometimes these chieftains received
nicknames, descriptive of some trait
or honor achieved, and 1t was the
nickname which became the clan
name. This is the case of the Ken
nedy clan.
The Gaelic designation Of this clan
is "O'Ceannatta," and with the cx-
ception of the last syllable, which has
naturally become slurred a bit In the
Anglicized form of the name, Its pro-
nunciation was precisely that of
O'Kennedy.
The founder Of the clan vas a chief
tain named Fergus" and surnamed
"Ceannfada," or 'longhead" dn the
sense of being far-sighted), who -four
ished about the time of ST. Patrick.
Thus this clan or family name is
about as old as Christianity in Ireland,
and antedates the Christianization of
Anglo-Saxon England, which was sew
eral centuries prior to the Norman in.
