I researched my Irish Gaelic Surmame…

Using the site Gusman found..

1,478,479th
Most Common
surname in the World
Approximately 143 people bear this surname

MOST PREVALENT IN:
Wales
HIGHEST DENSITY IN:
Wales

I would have thought it would be most common in Eire but apparently not.
But there are many variations from the original root.

Two folk on here know what it is.

...fascinating.
I would have thought it would be most common in Eire but apparently not.
Ditto.

The root derivation path, it makes sense.
@TheSirfurryanimalWales
Certainly around Cork..I’m very surprised
Why are you surprised?

That's special because it is rarer, so it's cooler IMO :)))
@LunadelobosIAMTHEDRAGON As my great grandad and his brothers came from Cork ( and I established when trying to do the family tree that the name was common in the 19th century) you would have thought it would survive.
There must be Touhig’s in Ireland.
@TheSirfurryanimalWales That is my logical estimation of this situation dear, as you said; native derivations.

It really IS so bloody exciting :D !!!
Oh. I can just see you making a trip to Éire, meeting your kin, sharing a cider or pint, tea and humour.

I just get so excited imagining THIS :))))) 🤩🥳👩🏼‍🤝‍👨🏻❤
@ninalanyon Wow.
Computers are not my forte. I congratulate you!

@LunadelobosIAMTHEDRAGON Computer languages are much easier than human ones. I spent six years in primary and secondary school failing to learn French, and three years failing to learn Latin. Despite that languages fascinate me.
@ninalanyon I bombed French, that whole transposition of nouns and verbs, that throws my brain for a loop 🙃🤯😁🤦🏼‍♀😂...

We did speak some Italian, lived there for a while; it was ages ago.

I can't comment to that, learning Latin, which is WOW, so cool :D .

You see: I don't think I'd master a computer language bc it makes me nuts, I mean this thing, it's just NOT my forte:
I.E. I love (STNG's) DATA, but I am not at all Dataesque, in this regard...
I am sorry I can't explain it bc I am too tired, and hungry and actually hangry now lol
