First: I've been told that the surname King translates to Ó Cionga, and that the noun 'king' translates to rí. Is that correct? Also, I've been told there is no translation for the surname Cannon, but that the noun 'cannon' translates to canóin. Is that correct as well? Thank you!!

The surname Cannon is Ó Canáin from cano, wolf cub according to MacLysaght. Ó Cíonga is rare from the area Lough Ree. Other forms of King, usually considered as English, are Conry, Conroy, Cunree, MacAree and Mc Keary. The variants are from different areas.

More likely Mac Conraoi
Mac an Rí looks like a modern corruption |
