The Irish surname Linehan is an anglicized form of the Gaelic name Ó Laidhghneáin meaning “descendant of Laidhghneán,” a personal name that occurs in Old Irish genealogies; it is perhaps a diminutive of laidhghein meaning “snow-birth” (from ladhg ‘snow’ + gein ‘birth’). The name is most frequently found in the southern province of Munster, particularly in county Cork.
