Curtin (surname)
Curtin is a surname which is most common in the Province of Munster in Ireland. It takes several variant forms transliterated from the Irish language, such as: ''Mac Cruitín'', ''Mac Curtain'' or ''Ó Cruitin'', most of which are anglicised as ''Curtin''. The literal translated meaning of the Irish elements of the name are ''Mac'' (Son of) + ''Cruit'' (Crooked, and by extension hunchback, or an old name of the harp, by inference to the shape of the Irish harp) + ''-ín'' (signifying diminution), hence Little Hunchback, or Little Crooked One, but also Son of the Harp, or One associated with the art of the Irish Harp, which ties in with a traditional role in Gaelic culture. It is believed there are multiple Curtin families with different origins, the most famous of which is the bardic family which stems from Co. Clare. In the census of 1659 in Counties Cork, Kerry and Limerick similar sounding names such as Mac Curatine and O' Curataine were treated as synonymous although they ar ...
