Meaning of Last Name
McGuire is a surname of Irish origin, from the Gaelic "Mag Uidhir". The name means "son of Odhar" Some historical background indicates the name Mag Uidhir, Maguire or McGuire stems from the Magi of Éire who were the priests of ancient Ireland. The name is most often associated with County Fermanagh, Ireland. The McGuire Royal Family (Maguidhirs) lived in the McGuire (Maguidhir) castle in Enniskillen. The origins of the island town of Enniskillen go back to prehistory when this short nexus was the main highway between Ulster and Connaught. Enniskillen Castle was the medieval seat of the McGuire (Maguidhir), chieftains of Fermanagh, who policed the lough with a private navy of 1,500 boats. Nearby is Maguiresbridge and Maguiresbridge village. Whilst at McGuire castle, the King heard wind of a large army to attack. Fearing the loss of all his clan, he sent half of his people to the northwest of Scotland. Today, these Scots, whose origins are McGuire, go by the surname of MacQuarrie. sources 1.
