 Hayes - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hayes is the popular name for Hayes Communications (named after Dennis Hayes, founder), creator of the original self-dialing "smart" modem.
Hayes (or Hays) is the most common variation of a surname generally derived from various Irish family names, as the anglicization of Irish names introduced many errors and faulty phonetic spellings.
Hayes is actually not an Irish name, but a lowland Scot name, with its origins in "Hedges." Any attempt to make Hayes an Irish name overlooks the fact that many Scots left for Northern Ireland as supporters of King William III of England.
