Irish origin
From the Emerald
Irish origin describes ancestry or heritage traceable to Ireland, the island nation in the North Atlantic.
The phrase appears in discussions of ethnicity, genealogy, and cultural identity, particularly in countries with large Irish diaspora populations like the United States, Canada, and Australia.
Someone of Irish origin may identify with Irish traditions, history, or family lineage even if born elsewhere.
Many Americans of Irish origin celebrate St. Patrick's Day as a connection to their heritage.
