Fingin reigned as the 14th Christian King of Munster. From Fingin descended
the O'Suilebhain fmaily anglicised O'Sullivan and Sullivan. The root of this
surname is the Irish Suil "the eyes" which is derived from the ancient Irish
"sul" from the Lattin sol because the eye is the light of the body. The old
Irish called Sunday Dia Suil before the Christians callid Dia Domhnaigh [ The
Lord's Day].
According to O'Heerin's Topography, the O'Sullivans, before they settled in
Kerry, were princes of Eoghanacht, Mor, Cnoc-Graffan, a territory in the
Barony of Middlethird, county Tipperary, which is said to have embraced the
districts of Clonmel, Cahir, Clogheen, Carrick-on-suir, and Cashel of the
