O'Dea ({{IPAc-en|oʊ|ˈ|d|eɪ}}, {{Respell|oh|DAY}}; {{lang-ga|Ó Deá ({{IPAc-ga|oː|ˈ|dʲ|eː}}), contraction of Ó Deághaidh, formerly Ua Deághaidh}}), is an Irish surname derived from Deághaidh, the name of a tenth-century clan chieftain.

O'Dea Clan Origins

The O'Dea clan came originally from County Clare where there is a fortified tower house over 500 years old known as O'Dea Castle[1] at the {{convert|80|acre|m2|adj=on}} townland of Dysert O'Dea ({{Irish place name|Dísert|hermitage}}).[2] The ruins of Dysert O'Dea Monastery, round tower, and St. Tola's high cross are 265 metres to the south-southwest of the castle in the adjacent {{convert|260|acre|km2|adj=on}} townland of Mollaneen ({{Irish place name|Molainín|the little hill}}),[3] near Corofin.[4] ({{coord|52.911361|-9.066381|type:landmark_scale:5000_region:IE_source:wikimapia}})this surname is popular with many Irish families.

The name O'Dea is normally pronounced oh-dee, and sometimes oh-day, in English. Clan descendants may have the surnames Alday, Allday, O'Dea, Dea, Deas, Day, Daye, O'Day, O'Daye, Dee, Dees, O'Dee, Godwin, or Goodwin.

Edward MacLysaght, the former Chief Herald of Ireland, writing in his book, Irish Families, began his discussion of the O'Dea family as follows:

{{cquote|O'Dea is a name associated alike in the past and at present almost exclusively with the County Clare and the areas such as Limerick City and North Tipperary which immediately adjoin it. It is not a common name anywhere and even in County Clare is not numerous outside the part of the county where it originated. This is indicated by the place names Tully O'Dea and Dysart O'Dea, the site of a famous battle in 1318. The head of the sept was chief of a considerable territory comprising much of the barony of Inchiquin. In Irish the name is Ó Deághaidh.[5]}}

In another book, The Surnames of Ireland, MacLysaght describes the O'Deas as "one of the principal Dalcassian septs", and about the name itself, he remarks, "The prefix O is now almost always used, but a century ago Dea was quite usual and the surname Day [6] was regarded as synonymous."[7]

Ancestry

The O'Deas, together with the O'Quinns ({{lang-ga|Ó Cuinn}}), belong to the Uí Fearmaic group.
