Brophy

Brophy is an Irish surname of ancient origin, which is derived from the Irish "Uí Bhróithe" or "Ó Bróithe" septs that were located mostly around Ballybrophy, Laois, and in counties Carlow and Kilkenny. It is among Europe’s earliest true hereditary surnames, traceable to a 9th-century Ossorian ancestor and still geographically rooted in the same region more than a millennium later.

Arms (Heraldry)
The Brophy coat of arms is blazoned as Argent (silver), with a vert (green) antique harp and chief gules (red) charged with thee fleur-de-lis. When granting the arms, the Ulster King of Arms selected imagery from the ancient family's pedigree, combining the coat of arms of province of Leinster with the heraldic blazon of the Fitzpatrick dynasty borne by the Earl of Upper Ossory, Baron Upper Ossory, and Baron Castletown. ==Notable individuals with the Brophy surname==
