Killsythe is not my last name! That's the town in Scotland where my ancestors derived from and lived until they came over here. I don't want people goin' around thinking my last name is Killsythe...

My last name is Scottish (not surprising when you consider that both my parents are Scottish).
My last name is McIntyre and the commonly accepted origin of the name is from the Gealic 'Mac-an-t-saoir' which means "son of the carpenter". Although it also could have come from a prominant member of the Clan MacDonald who possesed a great deal of land in Kintyre. The principal family was the McIntyres who possesed the lands in Glen Coe and Loch Etive for several centuries untill they were forced to give the land up in 1806. Many members of this family then emigrated to America. Hey - some of you guys on here might be REALLY distant relatives of mine!! http://www.sitcomsonline.com/ubb/wink.gif
The motto of the old McIntyre Clan was "Per Ardua" which means "through difficulties".
Actually, my last name was spelt 'MacIntyre' untill my grandfather changed it to 'McIntyre'. Don't ask me why he dropped the 'a' - I have no idea!

Mine's German, I believe. My mom's maiden name was Czechoslovakian, which is where her grandparents came here from... I don't know whether they were from the Czech part or the Slovakian part, though. Czechoslovakia isn't a country anymore...

Well since Britt is a Jineddy (Jinny and Teddy) and Morganne is a Jinanybody (Jin and Anybody) I'm a JinMag, now you can figure that one out on your own... OH! And Jenn is a JinKate! Isn't that the most interesting tidbit of information ever?

Am I Alone on This? My Family Just Discovered We're Not Polish, so our last name is Austrian. And they added a e to it when they came over, but we don't know anything about that, just my dad's grandmother's side, and my mom's side.

My last name is Arzab. Recently in an e-mail I had heard that someone that had the last name as people in my family was Brazillian. My great grandfather was from Russia, so I that's where some of my family was from originally, but as for where the actual name originated, I'm not sure. There are also alot of people with the name Arzab in Polland, so that could have been a place that my family could have originated, too. But, most of my family doesn't know that far back in family history. So, really, no-one in my family knows for sure.
