Hogan (surname)
Hogan is an Irish surname derived from Irish Ó hÓgáin, a patronymic of Middle Irish ógán, meaning "a youth", in the genitive case (cf. Modern Irish ógánach), itself from óg, "young" (ultimately cognate with English young), with a prothetic h.[1] A surname of the same form was Anglicised as "Hagan" in Ulster. Some southern bearers claim descent from an uncle of Brian Boru, High King of Ireland (1002–1014).[2][3] Occasionally appears as an absorption of west Connacht (O')Houghegan (Irish: Ó hEochagáin).[4] Hypothetically derivable from related words in Cornish and Welsh.[5]
