The Nugent surname is of Norman origin and came to Ireland in the 1100s from France. Their name was de Nogent from a place name in France and they trace back to 930. They settled in Cos. Meath and Westmeath. This is the usual origin of Nugents in Ireland today but some Gilsenans of Meath and Cavan adopted Nugent as their surname. In the Irish language it was Nuinseann.
