Does anyone know the variants of the name Gannon? What does it mean? Where did it originate?

<br>: Does anyone know the variants of the name Gannon? What does it mean? Where did it originate? <p>You and everyone else with similar questions should get "The Surnames of Ireland" by Dr. Edward MacLysaght. My copy was published by the "Irish Academic Press," 6th Edition, 1985. I'm sure it's still in print.<br>You'll find Gannons in there. What you won't find is the fact that some Roscommon Kilgannons became Gannons in the US. I knew their ancestry and descendants.<p>
