Naming conventions History The origin of the MacCarthy dynasty begins with Carthach, an Eóganachta, Eóganacht Chaisil king, who died in 1045 in a house fire deliberately started by one of the Lonergan (surname), Lonergans (who were members of the Eóganacht's arch-enemies, the Dál gCais).

Irish Clans
Irish clans are traditional kinship groups sharing a common surname and heritage and existing in a lineage-based society, originating prior to the 17th century. A clan (or in Irish, plural ) included the chief and his Patrilineality, patrilineal relatives; however, Irish clans also included unrelated clients of the chief. These unrelated clients and their agnatic descendants were ineligible to be elected chief, but nonetheless assumed the name of the leading lineage as a show of allegiance. Beginning in the 8th century, various genealogical collections were compiled purporting to trace the ancestry of these clans. Among them are genealogies in Bodleian_Library,_MS_Rawlinson_B_502, Rawlinson B 502, the Book of Ballymote, the Great_Book_of_Lecan, Book of Lecan, the Leabhar_na_nGenealach, ''Leabhar Mór na nGenealach'' compiled by Dubhaltach MacFhirbisigh, and the Ó Cléirigh Book of Genealogies.

Thomond
Thomond ( Classical Irish: ; Modern Irish: ), also known as the Kingdom of Limerick, was a kingdom of Gaelic Ireland, associated geographically with present-day County Clare and County Limerick, as well as parts of County Tipperary around Nenagh and its hinterland. The kingdom represented the core homeland of the Dál gCais people, although there were other Gaels in the area such as the Éile and Eóganachta, and even the Norse of Limerick. It existed from the collapse of the Kingdom of Munster in the 12th century as competition between the Ó Briain and the Mac Cárthaigh led to the schism between Thomond ("North Munster") and Desmond ("South Munster"). It continued to exist outside of the Anglo-Norman-controlled Lordship of Ireland until the 16th century. The exact origin of Thomond, originally as an internal part of Munster, is debated. It is generally held that the Déisi Muman pushed north-west starting from the 5th to the early 8th century, taking the area from the ...
