The loose translation of“O hEanain” the Gaelic original name for Hennegan is “ the descendent of the son the “Bird”. Who was the “Bird” and how he became so named is not known. It was normal for Gaelic surnames to descend from the original chief of the clan. It may be that he was a hunter or hawker, perhaps one who trained falcons.
