Redmond — Son of Raymond

Redmond comes from Mac Réamoinn, built on the Norman personal name Raymond. The family descended from the earliest wave of Norman settlement in County Wexford and, like Kinsella and Furlong, the name has stayed rooted in that same county for eight centuries.

A name that remembers one Norman ancestor by his first name alone — no title, no land, just Raymond's son, and everyone who came after him.
