McGee

Common Celtic patronymic

McGee is a surname of Irish and Scottish origin, derived from a Gaelic name meaning "son of Aodh" (a name associated with fire).

It appears frequently in American popular culture, perhaps most notably in the phrase the real McGee or the real McCoy, variants expressing authenticity.

McGee is common enough in English-speaking countries that it often serves as a generic or placeholder surname in fiction and casual reference.
