Derry's naming traditions go back to Derry's founding, by the city of London, in 1613. Mitchell bases his top 300 surnames upon the 1989 Foyle Community Directory. The Introduction gives the main cultural origins of Derry surnames: Gaelic, English/Lowland Scots, and 20th-century newcomers from Italy, Eastern Europe, and Indian Nationals.
