The most common modern spelling is de Standún or just Standún.

In addition to the above, *the names Staunton and Stanton in Ireland are of Anglo-Norman origin, having been brought to the country by settlers as early as the 13th century. County Mayo was the ancestral home to the sept "de Stonndún", who also established themselves as the "Mac an Mhílidh" sept, a name that was more usually anglicized as "MacEvilly".
