    One thought is to research the Gaelic bits -- McQueen would be an Anglicization of the "real" name, which would be in Gaelic. For example, check this fabulous resource out: https://www.sloinne.ie/surname/ga/mac-shuibhne/. Keep in mind that Scottish Gaelic came from Ireland and, consequently, the two languages share many similarities.

    Just as my surname, Kennedy, is an Anglicization of the "real" name which would be Ó Cinnéide or simply Cinnéide in modern Irish.
