I need to translate my last name. It is McEntee. If anyone could translate it for me, I would really appreciate it. Thank you.

Hello there

The Irish form of MacEntee is 'Mac an tSaoi'

Literally: Son of the seer/wise man

Hope this helps Smile

For sky to make it sing the prefect pitch/Of his dumb being, and that stir he caused/In the fleece-hustle was the original
Of a ripple that would travel eighty years/Outward from there, to be the same ripple/Inside him at its last circumference.

I believe it's Mac an tSaoi

Son of the wise man, expert, scholar.
