The name Fitzsimmons is Irish but of Norman descent, with the prefix 'Fitz' meaning the same as the suffix 'son'. So Fitzsimmons means Son of Simmons.

Spelling variations of this family name include: Fitzsimmons, FitzSimon, FitzSimons, FitzKimmons, FitzKimmins, FitzSymons, Fitzsimmins, Fitzsymmons, Fitzkimmons, Fitzkimmins, Fitzsimon, Fitzsymons and many more.

First found in county Cavan where they had been granted lands by the Earl of Pembroke for their assistance in the Anglo/Norman invasion in 1172.
