Geraghty

Geraghty and Garaghty (/ˈɡɛrəti/ GHERR-ə-tee) are Irish surnames. Originally written in a Gaelic form as Mag Oireachtaigh (or MacGeraghty in English), the name is derived from the word oireachtach, referring to a member of an assembly. The name of the modern national legislative body in Ireland, the Oireachtas comes from the same Gaelic root.
