HEENAN : Irish: Anglicized form of Gaelic Ó hEidhneáin ‘descendant of Eidhneán’ a personal name meaning ‘little one of the ivy’ or else a shortened form of Ó hEidhneacháin (see Hennigan). Since the variant Ó hÉanáin like Ó hÉanna appears to contain the Irish word éan ‘bird’ both surnames have sometimes become Bird by folk translation (see Heaney).
