McAuther is a unique, gender-neutral given name of Irish origin. It is derived from the Irish surname 'Mac Áthghaire', which translates to 'son of Áthghaire'. The name 'Áthghaire' itself means 'brilliant' or 'fair-haired'. While not as widely recognized as some other Irish names, McAuther carries a distinct charm and rarity that sets it apart.
"The name McAther was quite popular in 1942 with 14 births, but saw a dip to 6 births in 1944. In total, there were 20 babies named McAther during these two years."
