	Chiefs of the Name - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		An Irish Chief of the Name was a person recognised by the Chief Herald of Ireland as the most senior known male descendant of the last inaugurated or de facto chief of that name in power in Gaelic Ireland at or before the end of the sixteenth century, see Irish nobility.
		Some modern Irish clan organisations have named honorary chiefs where no heriditary Chief of the Name is known, but these are generally not recognized as such outside said organisations.

		IRISH CHIEFS OF THE NAME AND CLAN CHIEFTAINS
		The use of the word 'The' as a prefix to a surname to indicate that the user is the head or chief of a sept comprising the bearers of that name is a comparatively modern practice, but the existence of the chieftaincies so denoted makes an examination of its historical background essential.
		It may be noted that in the deeds conferring titles on chiefs who accepted that principle, the recipient was almost always referred to as 'chief of his name' or 'captain of his nation'.

	Clan McShane-Johnson-MacSeai'n - Irish Chiefs and the Modern Clans
		The main difference is between "Chief of the Name" and "Chief of the Clan".
		It is concerned with recognizing those who are "Chiefs of the Name" and thus, the title of "The", not with the conduct of the clans themselves.
		Courtesy recognition from the Chief Herald entitles a person to be known as "The X, Chief of the Name" and use a noble coronet on their arms.

	Shaw Family Online \| Family Name History
		The early chiefs of the Mackintoshes in the thirteenth century were alternately named Shaw and Ferquhard, and according to the Kinrara MS., Shaw the fourth chief obtained in 1236 from Andrew, Bishop of Moray, founder of Elgin Cathedral, a lease of Rothiemurcus in Strathspey.
		In the latter the name is earliest found in the 13th century when a Shaw is described as Cup-bearer to Alexander III, and a William de Shaw appears as a baron in the Ragman Rolls of 1296.
		In the lands of the Farquharsons the name endured in the Shaw lineage of Crathienard.

		The name of Topenibe which appears on subsequent treaties is that of his son who succeeded to his office and is doubtless the one mentioned as having been a pupil at the Carey Mission School on the St. Joseph's in the Treaty of Oct. 16, 1826.
		It is therefore concluded that the names cited represent the same individual and that he was a resident of the St. Joseph's River in the same village as Topenibe.
		In the list of chiefs receiving annuities in 1827, the name "Muck-kose" appears as chief of a village on the St. Joseph with a population of 64.
