For so far I know, it means son of!
And it can be Mac or Mc... (Scottish, Irish and where they go from there...)
So it would be like Son of Donald, son of Dowell (Douglas) etc...
With the times names and surnames change, you know that.
Now you keep the surname of most often your father...
In Scandinavian countries, the suffix son or sen means what do you think?
In Crete, it is akis, or akena.
In Russia, ovitch and ovitckaya( not sure, how to write it)
Island, dottir (daughter is also for the guess what?
Yes, you have to work a bit too!

It means "son of"... Donald, Dowell or Kinsey. The "O" like in O'Brien means the same. It is Irish.

E=MC^2 is part of Einstein's Theory of Relativity. The equation states that energy (E) is equal to the mass of an object (M) times the square of the speed of light (C^2).

It is Gaelic origin- Irish and Scottish in today's world.
It is also very common for people of Gaelic origin to have surnames beginning with " Ó" or "Mc" (less frequently "Mac" and occasionally shortened to just "Ma" at the beginning of the name).
"Mac" or "Mc" means "son of"; many names also begin with this. There is no basis in fact for the claim that Mac is Scottish and Mc is Irish: Mc is simply an abbreviation of Mac. Mc is more common in Scotland than it is in Ireland.

Mc or Mac is gaelic for the son of.

It is one Irish designation for "son of" (in Scottish it's Mac), the other, of course, being O'.
