Sugrue

Sugŕue is an Irish surname, which is an anglicized form of the old Gaelic name Ó Siochfhrádha, meaning "descendant of Siochfhrádh", or Ó Siochŕu the modern Gaelic equivalent of Ó Sugŕue, which in turn is a Gaelic version of the old norse German given first name Siegfried, meaning "victory and peace".It probably links to the name Ó Sulliván,mor, and was most likely a minor sept of this family, and owes its origins to the province of Munster, mainly the counties of Kerry, Cork, and Limerick, Kerry being the more numerous. Although this name is not the most popular by way of rank for this province, it is most certainly not rare for this part of Ireland. The name is uniquely Irish in that it predates Norman settlement, and although scholars cannot pinpoint exactly when the name first appeared in Ireland, it is thought most probably to be an adoption of a much smaller and earlier Viking settlement, personal name, most probably between 8th and 10th century AD. First-name adoption was a common and fashionable practice in early Ireland, as there were no hereditary surnames until around the 11th century, therefore the first name often became the last name once this system was introduced. The family's motto is "Lamh Foistenach Abu", "The Hand Of Victory". Other main spellings for this name are, Sugŕue, Ó Sugŕue, ÓSiochŕu, Shuckerow, Shugŕue, Sughŕue, Sugŕoe.
